Wink Transferring files to others in MS Outlook Express 6

Recently, I was trying to send / attach a file folder containing about 30 files and 2 folders to a friend using MS Outook Express 6.

I arranged all of the files and folders into one folder and named it
"SELL".

When I tried to send / attach the "SELL" folder to my e-mail message, the program would not allow me to do this. It seems that I have to send / attach 30 files individually in order for this to work !!! - and it ignored my sub-folders !!!

How can I create one big folder (less than 1 MB) and send the entire folder to my e-mail recipient without having to attach 30 plus files ???

Please help !!!

Thank you.

Send a message via MSN to doctorgonzo
Compress the files so you will be sending only one ZIP file. By far the easiest method.

yea, zip them. since they'll all be in one file, it'll also be easier to download and manage.

Since you're asking, if you have WinZip, just right click on the folder you want to send. One of the options is Zip and E-mail.
