Zip email attachments automatically
Courier automatically zips your outgoing email attachments, allowing you to send files faster, more reliably, and more securely using your own customized preferences. These preferences include:
Custom file extensions – Send blocked Zip files by automatically changing their file extensions.
Compression methods – Choose Zipx: Best method compression to produce our smallest compresssed file size to date. Alternatively, choose Zip: Legacy compression for compatibility with older Zip programs.
Image resizing – If you enable automatic image resizing, Courier will first resize your pictures to fit standard computer screens then zip and send them—all with one click! This ensures that your photos and other image files are delivered in the fastest, most reliable, and most accessible way.

Protect your email attachments
Select Courier’s file encryption capability to password-protect your attachments from unauthorized access. Courier offers manual and automatic encryption options, allowing you to choose how hands-on (or hands-off) you would like the zip/encrypt process to be.
Preview email attachments
Want to know what’s in a zipped email attachment before you open it? Courier provides you with an instant view of the contents of zipped attachments directly in the Outlook preview pane. When previewing an email that includes a Zip file attachment, simply click on the Zip file’s icon displayed in the email’s header. Courier will display an expanded list of the file’s contents using a simple tree structure.
Want to unzip and open a specific file in the preview tree? Simply double-click directly on the file to open it with its associated application for viewing, editing or saving!
Did you know? If you're running Windows 7 or Windows Vista, Courier also allows you to preview and open the contents of Zip files directly from Windows Explorer.
