There are actually several, some with features much superior to using
email as the truck.

The problem with them is:  Nobody wants to consider them.

Okay, so what are several ways to share files with a friend, where you
don't share any accounts or passwords, and where only your friend will
be able to access them?

FTP'ing to a web site is out - you either have no guarantee that
they'll be the only one to be able to access the file, or you have to
mess with password protected websites, not something a person is going
to do to send the kids photos to Grandma.
