Why are my replies to emails being sent as attachments instead of continuous threads?

When I reply to or forward an email it is being sent as an attachment instead of a thread. I want people to be able to read all the replies without having to open an attachment. I don't have this problem when I use I.E. 9 or 10. Can't find any settings to change this in Firefox or Juno Web-mail. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I just downloaded Firefox 31 today and would like to try it for a while. Would older versions of Firefox not have this problem?

Firefox doesn't do email, it's strictly a web browser.

If you are using Firefox to access your mail, you are using "web-mail". You need to seek support from your service provider or a forum for that service.

If your problem is with Mozilla Thunderbird, please Tag this thread as being for Thunderbird in the right-hand column of this page. This question currently is in the Firefox queue for answers.

I understand that Firefox is a Web browser, but it does effect the way some processes are handled...e.g. when you download new software or plugins Firefox doesn't allow you to open them, it saves them and then you open and run it. (unless there is a setting I don't know about) I.E. lets you run them without having to save them first. Again, as I mentioned about my original problem above, why does I.E. not attach replies and forward messages to an email, and Firefox does???.....making it harder to read all the replies at once. In other words, you need 2 windows open, one to read the attachment (group of replies), and one to read the latest reply. Maybe it is something with Juno and Firefox....I don't know. That's why I looking for a solution from the support forum.
