I have a friend with AOL and she told me (not the most recent AOL), that attachments don't just download in e-mail for them automatically - of course, she thought all e-mail was like that. She has to take special steps if she wants to download the attachments that come in e-mail - and she doesn't bother doing that. It's been many many months ago that she explained this to me, so it may have changed since then.

I have heard ONE complaint that AOL is now zipping INbound files. If the person receiving your files does not have a zip program that might explain the problem. But, it seems to me, that if an ISP was going to start zipping inbound files they would at least include a zip program with their software. But I forget... This is AOL. Tell your recipient to complain loud and long and frequently to AOL tech support and customer service. Don Do YOU want a gmail account invitation?
