So my advice to send password protected zip-files (for the people
needing to) with a different extension will help me to a couple of new
phone calls :-(

And I am still not ready with finding a solutino for tgz files. Somehow
the current version (4.29.3-1) seems to think tgz (and tar.gz) files are
zips. But after unpacking something (f-prot?) can't handle the result
and thinks it is to insecure to forward to the recipient.
