Jim:
Thanks for going to all that trouble. I'll keep your trick in mind if
I ever get into this situation again.

Hi Paul,
Jim - The remove .remove gmail workaround failed. I don't know why. I
got the same bounce message.
I ended up just having him download the Windows file from my MobileMe
Public Folder.
I don't know why either. I've used it many times and I just tested
it now by
sending an 8.9 MB zip that contains an installer EXE, which in turn
contains
3-Rev EXEs and a number of DLLs to my mother (couldn't think, off
the top of
my head, who else has a generic Gmail account that I could bug with
this ;-)
and it went through and I called her and we downloaded it from her
Gmail to
her computer and unziped it and all went as expected. What took the
most
time was explaining to her what and why I had sent and why, after
all of
that, I was having her delete everything. (she doesn't know an EXE
from a
shoe ;-)
Maybe the email address you are sending from has to be on the
recipient's
contact list? Or, possibly, there is some other setting on the Gmail
account
you are sending to that adds additional restrictions? However, this
is the
trick for sending a zip to a generic Gmail address that by default
rejects
zip and exe attachments.
In all cases I can remember, however, we had been corresponding
first and I
would have been on their allowed contact list. I'm not in the habit of
sending out unsolicited EXEs. ;-)
Aloha from Hawaii,
Jim Bufalini
