How did it come through the first time I sent it (that was
from a linux machine with mozilla)?

If I send that same .tgz file from windows, it is sent as

Content-Type: application/x-compressed;
  name="initapp.tgz"

and IMP (HEAD) tells me:

'This does not appear to be a valid zip file.'

which is correct...?

If I rename it to .tar.gz, it is sent as

Content-Type: application/x-gzip;
  name="initapp.tar.gz"

and the content-table of the tar file is displayed correctly.
