Answer 1

Yes; file transfer can be achieved with Mirth Connect.

Create a channel with Source Connector Type = File Reader. Set the source folder path and pooling frequency. Set the other parameters as per your need.

Then setup Destination with File Writer and other parameters as per your need.

Yes, file transfer can be achieved with Mirth Connect:

Create a channel with Source Connector Type = Java Script Reader, File Reader, or as per your requirement. Set the source folder path and pooling frequency. Now set the Destination connector type = SMTP Sender or others.

e.g.: SMTP Sender: here you can configure your SMTP details like port number, sender, to mailId, Body, etc

Answer 3

Yes, there are multiple ways to accomplish this. Files can be transmitted and written over tcp, http, ftp. With the embedded rhino engine, you could also build your own custom implementation should you need to.
