            Looking at this again, use a file utility to break the 6 gig file into four
    1.5 gig chunks. Stuffit Deluxe has been able to do this for many years; and *I
    think* Stuffit Expander can rejoin the segments on the Mac, depending on the
    method used to break them apart on the Mac.

         Please CC any replies to me as I'm a DIGEST subscriber. Thanks!

         Cheers!
