For that matter, he should ZIP "-V" the backup saveset.

Also, $ SET FILE/ATTRIBUTE= can be your friend when you need to setup fix up
the saveset's record format, record length and carriage control attributes.

For many years, I've received system dumps and backup savesets that customers
have munged by FTPing them and or by forwarding them via WEENDOZE.  By using
$ SET FILE/ATTRIBUTE= on the file(s), I was able to make most of them useful;
save for those really munged by ftp ASCII mode.
