Something like a self-extracting RAR or 7Zip file perhaps. Store the file with no compression and reassemble later. Since you are open to file spanning, lots of solutions exist for that.

What you propose is unaproved and can NOT be used.

It can be done with DOS command prompt or vbscript for that matter, but I suppose that's unsupported. Set compression mode to "Store" file and set it to span mode. Should be very quick since you won't be applying compression. Your proposed solution for file spanning using Winzip will work. There is no easier way to do it from inside Outlook without using unapproved 3rd-party solutions. -- Leonid S.
