Severin, are you using the zip available with toast or macZipIt? The latter would appear to work for most formats across platform. See http://www.maczipit.com/

As I remember , there are zip files and again Zip files .

Zip files made with stuffit may not be the same as some other Zip files .
like those that come from a PC .

Now this is all by memory ... I cannot find the relevant info in my own library ,
and the ....   WAMUG ARCHIVES   ....  are NOT accessible at the moment .

Recently ,they were found at :-

I am trying to send a Word document template file to someone with a PC and an omninet address. It keeps coming back saying that they will only let through files with a .zip extension. Notwithstanding creating a .zip archive and deleting the .dot extension before zipping it still keeps being rejected. Any thoughts on this?
