this is an OT request for help with Outlook Express 6 on win2000
i trust i have sufficient tips in my tip account that i do not have to
come up with one now because i am frustrated beyond belief and
cannot think straight
i downloaded and installed The Bat and stupidly allowed it to re-associate
the .eml file extension
i would like now to re-associate .eml back to the OE message viewer or
whatever it is that launches when you double-click a message
here's the scenario:
john doe sends me a message, to which he attaches another message!!
i want to open this second message, which i used to do all the time simply
by double-clicking the attached message (an .eml file)
i have tried re-associating the .eml extension to msimn.exe (the outlook
express executable) but obviously this is wrong because double-clicking on a
.eml file just throws me back into outlook express -- i want to OPEN the
bloody message
(why? because the attached message *itself* has an attachment, a
spreadsheet, and that's what i'm really after)
any idea what i should re-associate .eml with?
