I receive email from a friend who is using MSN.com for an ISP
occassionally.
Usually it has an attachment and I have yet to figure out how to open this
attachment. I receive a lot of messages w/attachments from others and
have
no problem opening them. I contacted my friend about the emails he sends
and
my inability to open them and was told I was the only one complaining
about
them. I received one yesterday with the ".email" extension and, once
again,
could not open it. It immediately attempted to open in Notepad with out
asking me. When I tried several other programs to open it, I was
unsuccessful as well. This is an example of what I see:
