    The best method is not to send attachements at all.  You have no
idea what kind of system your subscribers are working with.. which can
vary from Unix to Linux to Commodore 64 , Amiga and Mac.
     MSWord files are useless to anything but a Wintel system, and
even then some appliations cannot read them.  Send your stuff as ASCII
and everyone will be happy.
   (In any case, many people now do not trust any attachments, after
getting hit by Mellissa and the Love Bug in particular)
