Really?  I haven't checked into what can or can't be done by gmail, but I've
assumed it would accept about anything.  (I don't really use gmail all that
much.  I just got the address back when they were sending out invites, and after
getting 5 of them, I just finally decided to do one.)

1) try renaming the file as .xex or something.

2) just zip it up.  Or a .cab or whatever.

3) You can try my regular ISP address that appears at the top of the message.
It tends to do over agressive spam filtering, but I have received files there
before.

If you really want to send a full disk image, go ahead.  That's fine.  Right off
hand, I don't know how many tools there are to create floppy images.

I'd have to hunt for some.  I used to have quite a few dos based ones, but
that's been a while.

Personally, I just use WinImage since I already have it to deal with other disk
images, but it's not worth downloading just for that reason.

A quick google search for 'floppy image' turns up a few.


This one says its free, but I haven't tried it.
