email attachment
When someone sends me an attachment of type *.eml and I click to open the
*.eml file my screen goes back to the inbox screen like it has just opened Outlook Express again. I have no problem opening email in inbox but can not open *.eml as attachment. What is wrong? I have tried to redo the open with file program but same thing happens.

Re: email attachment
Go to Tools | Options | View in WinExplorer and find the eml file type and
click on Advanced and then highlight Open and then click Edit. The application used line should be: "C:\Program Files\Outlook Express\msimn.exe" /eml:%1 Use DDE should be checked. Application should be msimn and the Topic is System and the other two boxes are blank. see if that fixes it. steve "Ron Cardwell" <RonCardwell@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:A4976988-4081-4267-9486-47703170D6E3@microsoft.com... > When someone sends me an attachment of type *.eml and I click to open the > *.eml file my screen goes back to the inbox screen like it has just opened > Outlook Express again.

I don't drink coffee. Better start.
I didn't even read the OP. Just this part, so I jumped the gun. Steve, Which tools? I do not have View in WinExplorer tab on my outlook express tools.

Re: email attachment
Steve,
Tried this and got same results. when I click on attachment still just seems to reopen OE. also if I save the attachment and try to open it it just opens OE but not the eml file. Also if I go to " open with" it does not show OE as recommened exe to open Type*.eml file. What next?
