Seriously, moving the file is the easy bit. Harder is avoiding the need to separately
notify the recipient that the file has been transferred.

If only there was some sort of protocol that combined transferring the file with some
form of notification to the intended user that the file has been transferred, and
where to find it. Ideally bundled up in a Unified Communications app that made the
notification appear in the users email inb........ oh.
