Using your suggestions I saved the xxx.email file and changed it to a eml
file. works fine, opens in OE
Properties show program to be used as OE--that's logical.
changed to xxx.email in hard disk - oe window pops open with last page view
but no xxx.email file display. Properties again "still" show as opens with
OE.
Its straight forward. MY OE6 will not open a .email file or maybe just those
forwarded by MSN as many Google results show.

Hi Shakey,

You can change .email to open with Outlook Express.

By the way, what program does .email open with now?

As Ron suggested, save your .email to hard disc.

Right click it and choose Properties.

Properties dialog window will display what program is assigned to Opens
with:

Notice you can click Change to choose and assign the program you want to
use.

If you need more help, post back.

Ken
