Can you double check to make sure you have zip.exe in your c:\mystic folder specifically?

If I go into c:\mystic and type "zip" I get this (try it on your system too):

Copyright (C) 1990-1999 Info-ZIP
Type 'zip "-L"' for software license.
Zip 2.3 (November 29th 1999). Usage:
zip [-options] [-b path] [-t mmddyyyy] [-n suffixes] [zipfile list] [-xi list]

As far as not seeing any temp files: If you notice the timestamp it shows that MUTIL starts up, reads all configurations, and scans and exports every message in every base all within 1 second.  The amount of time a temp file would exist would probably be in the low milliseconds so it'd be easy to miss (possibly would never even show if you're looking in something like Explorer).

Mystic gives errors when it has a problem within its own processes but it cannot give errors for what archive programs do, so this is the most likely case for you since there are no errors reported by Mystic itself.
