Just rename the zip anything but zip. zig, zit, zif, zid, whatever. Gmail then will ignore it. Little more hassle for your customers (they have to rename it on their end, but most can handle that).
- wwortiz 16y agoConsidering windows hides extensions by defaults it is going to be a pain in the ass to get a customer to rename it.
- chops 16y agoThat might be a little complicated for many customers.
- CamperBob 16y agoYeah, I usually go with .zi_ to avoid the possibility of colliding with any proprietary extension that might be in use by the recipient. Google's intentions are in the right place but I think they went a little overboard. If someone is going to open an unsolicited zipfile and click on an unknown .exe, there is probably no way to stave off an unwanted visit from Murphy.
