Zip email attachments issue

[Bladerunner929]

I usually use 'zip' file attachments to email data to my phone but since using the Xperia S all I get is an info button telling me I can't open or save the attachment as it might contain malicious code.  Has anybody got a work around or a fix for this?  Surely you should have the option of 'opening at your own risk' but I can find no option that allows the use of zip file attachments even the winzip apps don't get them when installed.

What version of sw and build number does your phone run on?

You can check by going into Settings - About phone.
