Since you are using compress, what did you expect? It changes the file into a compressed data block file. Unless you are uncompressing it, the file probably looks the same as it does on the system you mailed it from. Compare the two files (the attachment and the compressed file on the original server).

Note, even tar may change the file where it will not be readable. Also, a tar file may not be viewable on some other servers.
