Do you know that GMail can be used as a file archiving utility just like Winzip, 7-Zip or Winrar.</DIV><BR /><DIV>To create a ZIP file using GMail, compose a blank email message with Yahoo! Mail, Windows Live Mail or even GMail and put your GMail address in the "To:" field.</DIV><BR /><DIV>Upload and attach the files that you want to get zipped. (GMail supports attachments upton 10 MB in size.)</DIV><BR /><DIV>Once all your files are attached to the email message, hit the "Send Message" button and wait for that email to arrive in your GMail inbox.</DIV><BR /><IMG src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_XYizHvjgLrA/RfEGsspdgcI/AAAAAAAAAgg/aHvWHfkF1io/s1600/gmail-create-zip-documents.gif" /><BR /><B>Open the email message and you'll see a hyperlink called "Download all Attachments" - that points to the zip file created from all the attachments which you have uploaded in the first step.<BR /></B><BR /><DIV>You can save the zip file with all the attachments to your computer, or you can open it without saving.</DIV><BR /><DIV>While this you can create ZIP files in Windows without a third-party utility by sending files to the "Compressed (zipped) Folder", the GMail feature may also prove handy at times.</DIV></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/CBBBFAB7-C7C4-41BE-B442-FC6560941A7D/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content6.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
