Yes it is 2007 and the extension is .eml. If it's .jpg or .doc I
don't have a problem. I get the error: This file cannot be previewed
because of an error with the following previewer: MS Office Outlook
message and item previewer

Some people report that Google Desktop Search prevents the opening of the
EML file type. Disable the GDS Outlook add-in or uninstall GDS and see if
that helps. I understand the problem is fixed in the most recent version of
GDS. Alternatively, you can save the EML file to the hard drive and when
you double-click it, Outlook Express should start and open it.
