I can't imagine anyone accepting zipped attachments on e-mail and practicing
safe computing.
Mine automatically flushed zipped attachments and most HTML comes through as
a blank page as I have it set to text only.  Links are also disabled but can
be copied and pasted.




JPG is inherently compressed, so zipping JPG files is usually a waste of
time, unless you want to group files together into one download. GIF is
self-compressed too, but not as well. PDF is a bulky format. I can see
converting zipped GIFs and JPGs to unzipped files, but are you sure you
want to convert to PDF?

Makes sense for complex projects, with documentation and graphics combined,
to use PDF.
