RE: How do I send EDI file securely over Internet via FTP or HTTPS?

Our EDIINT AS1 product has a bug being worked on, so not advertised.
However, I favor HTTP/S because it is a relatively synchronous process
where Email can get badly delayed sometimes.  When we get a bug fix
to our AS1 (iPlanet) we'll put it on line...we get into an infinite, very fast
write loop...and we don't like that.
