the EML file Open with Select Outlook Express (msimn.exe) and also check
the "Always open with..." box.

I'm using outlook express 6.0. When I try to open a .eml file, it only
opens the regular outlook express application. This problem started when I
had a new computer with Windows XP Professional Version 5.1 SP 2, and only
on my computer in the office. Before I had Windows XP, I used Windows
2000
and didn't have such problem. Actually I can open .eml file on any other
computers in the office with either Win 2000 or Win XP.

I do Windows update regularly.

I appreciate any help or comments.
