652465 2008-03-24 22:36:00 Can anyone help... can I stop outlook from zipping my attachments which it presumably thinks are too big. I use 'shrink pic' to reduce photos but if somebody wants a better quality photo outlook decides to zip the file which not everyone can figure out how to unzip. Is there a hidden setting somewhere to set the file size or better still stop the zipping altogether ?? Wheatsack (13535)

How are you attaching these pics?
Do you go into Outlook, create new mail then click on Attach file?

Yes thats the routine I use, small files are ok (50-80Kb) but bigger get mysteriously zipped.

Had a look through your Options?

But I dont think it zips without you doing it yourself
