[Winpt-users] Possible broken Attachments

[Ralf Latz]

Hello Timo,

I tried it with 3 PDF files (together about 100 MB) and have also a
problem with the zip after it has been decrypted again. The archive
seems to be corrupt!

Unfortunately 7Zip says only: "xxx.zip is not supported archive"

Regards,

Ralf
