Unless you encrypt the email as well this would provide almost no security.

for secure sharing, you can set a password for the zip file and send it with the link to your friend.

Hello Andy,

I was able to zip the files, then uuencode it, and include it in a zip
archive, but once again, not very convenient for sender or recipient.
When I used it frequently, I could remember the command, but I always
have to look it up when I don't use it very often. The disadvantage of
a file sharing site is that it is more public than an email. I guess
files at a file sharing site can be set to private, or only viewable
to a person with the link. Uuencode reminds me of the old Usenet news.
Grab 50 uuencoded files, strip the headers and footers, concatenate
them together, uudecode it, then unzip the resulting zip archive to
get a graphic that said "Welcome to the Internet." ;-D
