Hi there,

How can I send a link such as ftp://24.68.92.125/movie.mpg and when the
receiving party gets the email, I'd like for him to be able to click on it
and have it go into "save as" mode, rather than just play the movie.....

Thanks,

Gordon

That's a client side setting that you can't control. (For a lot of users,
the default for a link in FTP will be to save as.)

If you absolutely need it to save, you have to zip it up in a compressed
format and force the user to unzip it when it's done.
