Try posting this in an Outlook Express news group - this is not one of them.
Outlook is a part of Microsoft Office and is what this group supports.
Outlook Express is a part of Internet Explorer and has its own news groups.

You can also find some good Outlook Express information here:

Is this the same problem I see whenever I receive an e-mail and the text is repeated in an attachment?

Tell your friend to turn off the app that does the automatic zip. Neither
OE nor OL does automatic zipping.
