Default .email extension

Ken
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.

Default .email extension

Hi MM,

Thanks for confirming .email extension will not display in Outlook Express
even though Outlook Express is assign to open .email extensions.

However it does display in Outlook Express when changed to .eml.

Strange.....

I do not have a answer to the problem.

Default .email extension

A .email (or .ema) or .ezm file is an alternate file extension for an
..EML file. One option is to save the attachment, then rename with an
..EML file name.

Or you can create a file association for .email, .ema or .ezm files.

You can get to File Associations via:
- My Computer
- View (Win95/98/NT4/Me) or Tools (Win2000 or WinXP) menu
- Folder Options (or Options)
- File Types
- New Type
- New
- Action: OPEN

The application used needs to be:
"C:\PROGRAM FILES\OUTLOOK EXPRESS\MSIMN.EXE" /eml:%1

Content Type (MIME) should be:
message/rfc822

Depending on your version of Windows, you may not see the Content type
while setting up the file association. In that case, don't worry about
it.
