This version of ZipExtract is compatible with the new compression method used by PKZip 2.0x
ZipExtract is a Tabby utility that allows you to receive mail packets packed with PkZip.
If you need a custom installation these are the instructions:
Tabby Users:
- copy Zip Extract in the same folder of TabbyNet and the other Tabby applications.
- open Tabby Maint and modify the sequence of applications for each events replacing ArcMail Extract with Zip Extract. Zip Extract will launch ArcMail Extract if the packet is not 'zipped'.
- if you want to always run ArcMail Extract after Zip Extract, write "1" into STR# 1134, write "0" if you want to run ArcMail Extract only if Zip Extract can't expand some files.
- if you receive crashmail calls you should modify also the STR #305 of TabbyNet
- if you use Tabby Robot for crashmail you must modify the STR# 301 resource of Tabby Robot replacing ArcMail Extract with Zip Extract.
Copernicus Users:
- as released Zip Extract is set to work with Tabby. To use Zip Extract with Copernicus you need to modify these STR resources, usually you need to change 'Tabby' with 'Common Folder' and the 'Generic' file to 'Common'.
