    Hi Eveyone:

    I am wondering if anyone is an email expert. I am getting forwarded
    .email attachments that will only open with Microsoft Word. Some won't open at all. I am curious as to the .email extension and why it exists

    Hi


    See of you can save them then rename the extention to .eml then open.


    As to .email extentions, I dont have an answer as yet or off the top of my head appart from its due to trying to curb virii coming through in email attachemnts and they are renamed so as not to always open... but thats a guess.
