FTP Security – Write-only or folder-limited access

I was wondering if there was a way someone other than me (like one of my clients) could send files to my Online Storage via FTP without them being able to access and modify the files that are already there. I want to give people the ability to send me files, without giving them access to the files that are already there.

Essentially, is there a way to give a user write-only access to Online Storage, or to only one specific folder in Online Storage, via FTP? So that they could either not see anything, or just see the file list, but not actually download files that are already there?

You would not be able to do this, however, you may enable an email drop box to allow other users to send files to Online File Folder:

Ah, ok. I was hoping for a way to allow people to send me massive files. I suppose I’ll just give clients the password and not keep anything on there that I don’t want them to have.
