Its a comprehensive list. But there's a new program out there, Otengo . Its free
Whats makes otengo different from other softwares is: first you can send files of unlimited size. Any number/size of files or folders can be sent. Secondly, Otengo has a push-based model. It works like email, and when you get a message, the files download on your computer while you work. You dont have to click on files to download. If the internet gets disconnected, the file download resumes from where it stopped. That is something no other program out there can do.
Its pretty amazing, and you guys must check it out.
I see that you already mentioned LeapFILE on your list. Actually LeapFILE just officially announced the release of their Desktop Client with Microsoft Office, Outlook and Thunderbird integration.
