I just found out that Becky2 had a plugin for zipping
attachments. Well this can be achieved with TB! too but it's a
bit tricky. This is taken from the winzip help file:

- 

Compressing attachments from within your e-mail program

There is another technique you can use to compress attachments while composing 
messages in your e-mail program. This technique does not require that your e-mail 
program support the MAPI interface that WinZip uses for the above features; it works 
with most e-mail programs that use the standard Windows "Open File" dialog box to 
attach files.  Here is the technique:

1.  In your e-mail program, open the dialog box you normally use to attach files 
to your e-mail messages.
2.  Using the standard Open File dialog box, locate the file or folder you wish to 
attach.
3.  Position the mouse pointer over the file or folder name in the dialog box, 
then click the right mouse button and choose Add to filename.zip from the pop-up menu 
(note: the filename shown in the menu entry will be the name of the file you 
selected). This will create a Zip file called "filename.zip".

4.  Still in the Open File dialog box, click once on filename.zip (the zip created 
in the previous step). This file will normally be at the end of the current directory 
listing.
5.  Click the appropriate button to attach the Zip file (this is typically labeled 
Open, Attach, or Insert).

And well, it works and it's very fast too. Have fun! :)

PS: Just tested with WinRar and as long as shell integration
options are checked.

This procedure will work with any archiving software that packs
Explorer Shell extensions. I have no problem doing this with WinRAR
and have been doing so from ever since.

Yeah, I kinda' realized that, but still, it's a neat trick :)

We need to find some new terms to describe the rest of us mere mortals

SC> Yeah, I kinda' realized that,

I thought you would. :-)

However, I was just clarifying for those who aren't using WinZip and
feel that this can only be done with WinZip.
