it's a problem of some windows unzip-programs. rename the file from .tgz
to .tar.gz. then you will get a regular product...;-)

yes, you need a mail-server for mailboxer. maybe you can install the
"smtp2zope.py" on an existing mailserver and submit the mails to your
zope on your windows box. i've heard that some people run MailBoxer
under Windows with some commercial mail-servers. I only work with linux,
so I've no experience with windows-servers at all.

greetings, maik.
