Computer Policy
Please zip any file before you send it. Different types of e-mail handle files differently and I have had a lot of problems recently with files which have been sent. Zipping seems to eliminate most of those problems. If you need a zip program - go to http://www.winzip.com for a free evaluation copy of winzip.
