The Pages file format is actually a package or a bundle or something--so
it's really multiple files pretending to be a single file. So Entourage
sees it as multiple files.

Just right-click and Create Archive on the Pages files first, then attach
the resulting zip.

Sorry. Apple seems to be making so much use of the
right-click/control-click thing even in their own apps that I forgot to
specify the trick.

Glad that worked.
