   Hello Wilfred,   
      
   On Sunday August 20 2023 13:31, you wrote to Tommi Koivula:   
      
    TK>> Time to update the defaults for the next release. :)

    WV> I wonder if there ever was anyone who used any of those!? ;-)   
      
   These are the only ones still defined in my congfig (W32)   
      
    ZIP   PKZip25.Exe -add -nozipextension   
      
    ZIP   PKzip25.Exe -ext -nozipextension -over   
      
   For the vast majority of my links Fmail does no compression. It is left to   
   Binkd. For a few links ZIP is used.   
      
   So by all means remove the default for the obscure ones. As long as the user   
   cam still add a seldom used compression method.   
      
      
      
      
   Cheers, Michiel
