Opening tar.Z attachments using winzip in Outlook 2003

Hi,

I have an issue when trying to open unix compressed file attachments in
outlook 2003. Trying to open them with winzip you double click on the
attachment and it says that you need to type the name of the original zip
file. Outlook is cutting off the last character and putting a space in where
a dot (.) should be.

When i save the attachment to disk and then open it with winzip no issue, it
allows me to decompress the file and view it in winzip no issues.

Why is Outlook changing the filename when it is trying to open it?
