cannot send files through Skype for business on Mac
I was shocked to find out today that you can't send attachments through Mac's Skype for business client. How does this not top the list of features? Having a mixed environment, it's these kinds of overlooked major featues that are making my mac users clamor to get rid of O365.
A typical Microsoft laidback attitude that reflects in its products
Thank you all for the feedback. We absolutely do want to add file transfer to our client and are working on this. At this point, I don't have a timeline to share yet, but please to stay tuned.
Thanks!

Still staying tuned. Any progress?
Sorry guys, did you read this read? This works since December 2017, for Sfb 2015 OnPremises you need the Server 2015 December update and set the EnableFileTransfer value to $true via the cmdlet set-CsPlatformServiceSettings
- Any updates? It has passed quite some time!
Support for file transfer in 1-on-1 chats is supported for Skype for Business Online and Skype for Business 2015 server customers. If you have SfB 2015 server, you must install the December 2017 update and set the appropriate policies.
Wow, This was posted in 2016. It's 2018 now and "still" no attachments can be sent via SfB for mac. It's almost as if Microsoft is deliberately hampering the mac product line. I can't imagine why they would want to do that *blush*.As others have noted, support for Skype for Business 2015 server customers requires installing the December update and enabling certain policies.
