 Lately more and more problems with gmail - when sending attachment with image files - like floppy image, TOS image , shorter hard disk/SD card image files.

 Please use some other e-mail provider/service than gmail. Especially if
ordering some SW/driver, image files. Because it rejects whole e-mails just because file extensions
(and there is some 40 listed by them). And does it without any check of file content.
Decent e-mail providers check content of attachments, mostly for viruses and other harmful content.
What of course needs little more code and CPU load. But all it is
not big deal with today computer power.     I recommend  Proton Mail
https://go.getproton.me/aff_c?offer_id=7&aff_id=11851 
It is free and safe.     

 Additionally gmail wrote in e-mail rejection reply that my site has bad reputation .  Huh !
Surely has it by morons mostly active at atariage - who wrote diverse nonsenses about my SW causing damages like hard disk content lose, even damaging some HW - like UltraSatan and similar.
 What times are this ? Big Internet companies just accept such claims without any proof ? Welcome back Stalin era ! 
Rule number one: before declare someone as guilty listen to both sides. Think about what you heard. Use your knowledge about computers in cases like this - or if have no it - just don't judge.
 Surely, most of those false accusations - it they can be called so at all, as they were really not serious. Instead it big words, mentioning big damages - most popular is losing hard disk content, without 'any chance to recover' .  That happens when some can not admit that some can do it better than them.
And what to expect from cracking crews who write all time in style: "we are the best ..." .
 C.J. even wrote at great atariage about I stole his ULS code 'byte by byte' - well, so his code is that was caused damages !  Arrest him !
 Seriously: ULS has no any support for games using TOS functions, is only for games not using TOS, so not floppy file functions of TOS . And majority of Atari ST games using TOS calls (like 65%).
 If I would not developed support for them - like TOS 1.04 in RAM, special launchers - and all it needed lot of time. I would be not able to do over 2600 game's hard disk (now rather SD card) adaptations. Yeah, adapts (in short) - this are not cracks, patches. Sure, there may be copy protection 'crack' by need, some changes in code, and they may be simple one - like correction only few bytes, or may be replacement of whole  code parts.  Then there are fixes to make it work under all TOS versions.
 Lot of time is needed, especially now when dealing with less known games to find proper floppy images of them. I needed to make some fixes because of errors in images. Or combine from multiple sources.

Back to e-mail providers:  if you can recommend some good one, free, and without bad filters, good for attachment sending and receiving, please write here.
