A password protected zip archive is about as secure as putting a padlock through the zip sliders of a tent. At least use something sensible like gnupg. Check out the gpg manpage and their online documentation, which is pretty comprehensive. And once you manage to send encrypted messages from the bash prompt, then you can think about doing it from the fax receive script. -- AJS (Originating address does not accept e-mail.
