Emailing a Rev file

[Mark Schonewille]

Hi Paul,

Tell the person not to use Gmail if you want to send him executables  
in zip files. Gmail doesn't accept this. Mail.com is a good  
alternative. You could also put the zip file on a server in a password- 
protected directory and tell the recipient where to download it.
