Greetings.

I am new to this group and relatively new to KiCad. I started learning
KiCad on 2 December, and today I sent Gerbers for my first PCB to OSH
Park. I have tried to share my KiCad files with a friend, but Gmail
rejected the ZIP archive I tried to attach. Gmail thought there was
something malicious in the archive, even though it has nothing but
KiCad project files in it, which are all plain text. I was able to get
around that rejection by adding a dot txt extension to the end of the
files, then zipping them. My project uses one custom symbol which I
made. The library was made to use with the project, not global. My
question is, what are the essential files that must be sent to my
friend in order for her to use the project on her KiCad PC? Which
files can be left out and not affect her viewing or modifying the
project? We are both using the same version of KiCad.

I am using KiCad 5.0.2 on Debian GNU/Linux 10 "Buster" (Stable).
The files in the project directory are:
blink.bak
blink-cache.lib
blink.kicad_pcb
blink.kicad_pcb-bak
blink.net
blink.pro
blink.sch
fet.bck
fet.dcm
fet.lib
sym-lib-table
