Hi all,

I have been sent an eml file and it will not open by double clicking in Tbird. It works fine in Windows Live Mail and Win 10 Mail.

How do I fix this?

Regards,

Steve

Assuming you are using Windows, start 'default apps' and there you can set default for .eml

Hi David,

This did not work. I also made a mistake, it is a .html file, not an .eml. However, it works fine in 3 other email clients, including the dreaded Windows 10 Mail.

I have no idea other than to check default apps to see the setting for .html
