Users allow you to give other people access to your storage space. By default, user accounts are just like your master account: they can login and manage files via SWFT or FTP, etc. Typically, you'll want to create a user account for anyone who regularly uses or manages your account, and then use our sharing and sending features to get files to your individual clients and contacts.
