how do I send a file pm?

[hurricane3]

I have a request to send a file to someone but I don't know how. I can send messages but not files.When I try to copy and past to a pm the paste option is grayed out.
I would like to be a good member and send this file but don't know how.
Also the only way I can send it is a RAR file since for some reason all my files turned to RAR 'S instead of zip files and I think you have to have the RAR program to open it.

The PM system does not allow attachments.

Exchange emails with the other person and send the file by email.

I sent the opened file but it only sent part of it ,so I sent the RAR file and hope he can open it.
