Why is a jpeg attachment blurry when I send it it out?

I have scanned a document and the scan of the original looks fine, but when I email it as an attachment, to myself even, it is not readable. the resolution is lost ! what can I do about this?

iMac, Mac OS X (10.7.2)

I am sure that it is changed somehow during the process of sending it. I guess my service does that. i found that if I saved it adn sent it as a pdf then it was ok, but the pdf file was much bigger than the original file so it took my system time to send it.

but wow!!! I just compressed it as a zip file and it worked like a charm thank you so much Baltwo!!!!!!!!!!! the compresion reduced the size only a little but the sent document came back perfectly!!!
