E-mail message saved by Microsoft Outlook or other e-mail program; may also contain an e-mail attachment, or file sent with the message.
If EML files will not open in Outlook Express, try the following:
- Open My Computer.
- Select Folder Options from the Tools menu.
- Click the File Types tab.
- Under Registered file types, select EML Outlook Express Mail Message, then click Advanced.
- Click Open, then click Edit.
- Type the following line in the "Application used to perform action" box:
"C:\Program Files\Outlook Express\MSIMN.EXE" /eml:%1
- Click OK twice, then close the window.
NOTE: EML files may also be opened in Internet Explorer since they are formatted the same as .MHT files; changing the file extension from ".eml" to ".mht" should cause the file to open directly in Internet Explorer; EML files may also be opened within Internet Explorer using the Microsoft Exchange Server Outlook WebAccess client. |
