Interesting!

While I can't send an .mdb file as an attachment, if I change mdb to pdf,
then it goes through just fine.  Then my customer changes it back to mdb and
installs the new objects.

Jim,
Best to just rename the file as Debbie mentioned earlier. Many AV gateways
won't allow double extensions through as this was a virus tactic for a time.
The files would be named text.jpg.exe and other similar ways to fool the
recipient into thinking it was simply a graphic.

Hi Lambert:

But that can always be got around by simply sending your ZIP file named like
MYZipFile.ZIP.txt.
