This might be indeed a solution.  Under Unix-like platforms it is very
easy to embed and extract a uuencoded archive directly within an email
body.  The question is a) whether people like this and b) whether this
works sufficiently comfortable on non-Unix platforms also.  Another
suggestion is to disable all HTML emails which aren't in the
`alternative' format, this is, providing the same email as both plain
text and HTML.
