Hi all!

I used to make html messages with frontpage and turn them into eml files.
Whnever I wish, I openned them whitin windows explorer, write the message
and they were all ready to go. Well, I was very busy this year and I
didn't have done so. Today I needed a special message to a friend and when
I openned my eml files, they showed as messages received. I'm stuck, what
the heck happened? What could have changed? I have more than a hundred and
they are all like this, I can't write on them. Please help, I'm very
upset.
Thanks in advance,
Nana
