There is much to be said for simplicity. If one is going to make use of

attachments, what's wrong with plain old Zip-files ? There are free
versions of PK and UnZip about for several platforms, many file managers

can run them from a shell mode, and all Xy-formatting will survive the
archiving process. Come to think of it, isn't there something akin to
Uncode |
Decode in U2 that can facillitate the xfer of a single document, intact
?
