Description

Currently we only support in-only for file: and ftp: endpoints, in the sense that the content of the message is written to a file and no output gets produced.

It would be useful to support a scenario in which one could send an empty message to a file with a GET operation such that the content of the file is retrieved as an out instead of written to the file.
