Hi Daniel, 

I don't think the ML is stripping the attachment.  We do strip off
attached files with [exe
bat
cmd
com
pif
scr
vbs
cpl] extensions, but not .zip.  There's no mime type restriction.  

Messages are limited to 75 KB.  Messages larger than that are held for
moderation.  I handle them on a case-by-case basis: something slightly
over the limit I'll let pass, else I bounce it back to the sender with a
request to trim.   
It appears from here the attachment is being stripped at the origin.  When
in doubt, I suggest just pasting the first few hundred lines of the log
into the message body instead.  

Regards,
