7) Send the person you are requesting the upload from (referred to as the uploader) an email by entering their
email address in the designated field. It is not required, but good practice, to add a message. It will display
"[@whatever email.com] is outside of your organization". Do not worry. That's expected and exactly the point of
this request.
