<p>Methods and apparatus for enabling document access across a firewall are disclosed. A method of accessing a document across a firewall includes obtaining a document access request on the first side of the firewall, where the document access request specifies a document control command and an associated file name. The document access request is then packaged in at least one client e-mail. The client e-mail is then sent across the firewall to the second side of the firewall. One or more acknowledgement e-mails are then received across the firewall from the second side of the firewall, where the acknowledgement e-mails specify a status of the executed document control command. In addition, a method of providing access to a document across a firewall includes receiving a client e-mail across the firewall from the first side of the firewall, where the client e-mail includes a document access request specifying a document control command and an associated file name. The document access request is then executed such that a status of the executed document access request is obtained. An acknowledgement e-mail specifying the status is then sent across the firewall to the first side of the firewall.</p> |
