Title: Open attachments from email with .eml extension
Post by: herz on August 10, 2009, 04:47:11 PM

Most of the time I have no trouble opening attachments in email, whether Power Point, video, jpg, etc. But lately some of the emails have had the extension .eml. When I try to open it, I have to choose the option, and nothing works -- not office apps, not wmv, nothing that I've tried. Please help.
I'm using Mozilla Firefox, Windows Vista.

You may not have the correct programme installed. .eml means you have not got the correct programme.

Thanks for the info and welcome.
Looks like that's a program that is sold. Anything out there free, and mainly safe?
