I have had occasion to send an email with an attachment which was a
.zip folder containing several items.
The email was never seen by the recipient, sent twice, and no
message of warning came back to me. I am familiar with some servers
that will not accept certain types of attachment.
Other emails to the same addressee go through fine, either with no
attachment or with .doc or .jpg files (not zipped). The same zipped
attachment will come back to one of my own addresses correctly.
Has anyone any thoughts on this. I assume it is the target server
but why does it send no message back to me?

Because viruses in zip attachments frequently fake their from
addresses, so the only result of replying to them is to annoy some
person at random who has no relation to the virus e-mail. Not
replying reduces the worlds overall traffic and frustration levels,
and this is the approach some organisations take.
Have fun,
