Tried this and it just generates another zip.cpgz file. I do believe this is due to what I mentioned before:

Well I do believe there is an incompatibility between the way Calibre zips files and the way OSX unzips them. A simple double click on the ZIP file should open it.
Being very new to this forum, I don't know the procedure for bringing this to Kovid's attention. Could you direct me to it? Thanks again!
