Hi all

Some strip zip files from e-mails to avoid vira and spyware, thus cab
files can be a valid alternative for attaching compressed files.

You can use a MS command line util for this (cabarc.exe or
makecab.exe) or a freeware tool like CabPack 1.4, but did you know
that Internet Explorer comes with a GUI wizard-type wrapper for CabArc
called IExpress?

Just type iexpress at the Run entry in the Start menu. When finished,
it offers to save your settings as a "sed" file so you easily can
repeat a packing session.
