Zip file means a big file, is being compacted or made small, so that it is easy to send you can just click on it again and say unzip it will show the files in it.. or you can zip it so the files can be compressed

You cannot attach a folder as such to an email. A ZIP file is a compressed file, possibly containing several files. The advantage of a zip file is that size is reduced dramatically and you can store numerous files together. See www.pkware.com for more info about the pkzip program which is used to produce zip files.

You normally dont attached a folder to a email. You would normally attached a file. Most email allows you to attached up to about 10MB. The menu usually looks something like "Attach File" or something. This will pop a new window and you can then browse your harddisk for the file you want to attached to the email. To zip a file used a software like WinZip or something similar. Search google.com for more.

This is probably too much information. A lot depends on your computer, if you have software to make the .zip file and how big it will all be when you send it. Start here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ZIP_(file_format) Then go here: http://www.winzip.com/aboutzip.htm The above is for Windows users. My Mac seems to have all this stuff built in or included in the programs I use.
