If I specify either:

CONTENT-TYPE: APPLICATION/ZIP; BOUNDARY="SIMPLE BOUNDARY"
CONTENT-DISPOSITION: ATTACHMENT; FILENAME=TEST.ZIP
CONTENT-TRANSFER-ENCODING: BINARY

or

CONTENT-TYPE: APPLICATION/OCTET-STREAM; BOUNDARY="SIMPLE BOUNDARY"
CONTENT-DISPOSITION: ATTACHMENT; FILENAME=TEST.ZIP
CONTENT-TRANSFER-ENCODING: BINARY


I receive the message below from 7-Zip, when I attempt to extract the file:


Can not open file "TEST.ZIP" as archive.



Thank You and Please Be Safe!

Protect the .zip file with "uuencode -m", or (not SYSIN-safe) TSO TRANSMIT.

#! /bin/sh -x
# Run thsi script or paste into uudecode.
# Safest to extract in an empty directory.
uudecode -i <<{endmime}
