If your recipients have WinZip 11 or later installed, they can configure WinZip with your alternate extension in the System tab of the WinZip Options dialog. Recipients will need to use the Save As feature in Microsoft Outlook or their email program to save the attachment with the normal ".zip" extension. In general, your recipients will not be able to open the zipped attachments by double-clicking them as they normally would (but see below).
You will need to let your recipients know that the attachments are Zip files. Files sent using Attach file (Zipped) will use the alternate extension.
This option affects WinZip Courier's Send as Zip File feature in Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint.Be certain that all of your attachments are checked, safe and virus-free. If you use this feature you must be especially careful about the contents of your attachments. This would enable you to send the Zip file without error. For example, if you type zea (zipped email attachment), the zipped attachments might be named "WinZip Compressed Attachments.zea" rather than "WinZip Compressed Attachments.zip". Then, in either case, simply click the box labeled Use Custom file extension to put a check mark in it and type the extension in the field provided after Use Custom file extension. If instead you click Configure WinZip Courier from the Start button (or if your Courier version is older than version 8.0), you would then click the Attachment options button. If you open this from Outlook, you would then click the Zip Attachment name button to set an alternate extension. If your email provider, or the one used by the person who will receive your file, restricts or rejects attachments with this extension due to security concerns, you can configure WinZip Courier to use a different extension in WinZip Courier Options.
