If he emails the file and it is fine then yes I would assume the file is full size on his computer. The fact that it creates the 0 byte file on the server says he is getting through his firewall. When he gets the 202 error does it happen immediately or does it take a little time? I'm no FTP expert but it almost sounds like his connection is either timing out after it creates the 0 byte file or his connection is being terminated.
In looking for similar FTP behavior (outside of OOTP) I'm seeing comments that this can happen if FTP is in 'active' mode and suggestions made to put it in 'passive' mode. Again, I'm not FTP expert just reporting what I've found so far.

The problem is probably that the client was not using "passive mode" FTP (which is the default for W7/IE)
An alternative is to make sure that ports 20 AND 21 are permitted passage in your firewall(s) - hardware and software.
Traditional FTP uses two ports, one for control, one for the transfer traffic.
