You might get an account with gmx.com instead. They have pretty loose rules for sending large files, I wouldn't think two small ones would be a problem. If you can get the recipient of these files to use a package called 'p7zip-full' you can create an archive 'folder' with the files inside with a .7z extension. That probably won't raise any flags. I used to send a friend a few mp3's this way and title the folder 'screw-the-RIAA' never had a problem and if your password is strong the archive is hell for stout. you put the files in a directory then password protect and zip all the files in that directory. The Archive.7z will be created in that same directory then you can attach that to an email. Use the following command: 7za a -p(your strong password) Archive(your name for the Archive).7z(directory) the recipient of this Archive folder will run: 7za e -p(password) Archive(name).7z If you don't care about a password: 7za a (directory.7z) directory If all this seems clear as mud, there's some good examples in the: man 7za -- CK -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
