Unable to open .eml files

11 years ago

I cannot open .eml files. I am trying to open tutorial supplies in that format. I have Windows 7 and use Windows Live Mail. Nothing I seem to do works. I do hope you can help me. I also use my favorite PSPX. Many thanks. Charlene

This page (EML files) mentions Outlook Express instead of Windows Live mail but it might help.

You are right, it is a great article. I wish I had Outlook Express. I need to know how to open them in Windows Live Mail. Surely there is a way.

Unable to start B&S 12 hp
Q

Like Rusty says, plus, several things. I doubt that a 12 hp horizontally opposed twin is a model 42--, most likely a 40---, but that doesn't matter. This whole series of engines where prone to starting problems when they aged. The shinny spot in your magnet, sounds to me like the top starter bushing is worn out allowing the armature to drag on the field magnet. Cure, replace the "unreplaceable" top bushing by tapping it with a threading tap and pulling it with a bolt as you would a valve guide. Get new bushing at hardware, farm supply store or auto parts store. The OD will likely need turning or filing down. Almost any B&S starter will fit this by changing the end plate/mounting bracket. Remove starter gear and bendix ass'y, remove two long bolts holding starter together, hold starter body down so brush ass'y doesn't come apart, remove end/mounting plate, place on "new" starter. As a last resort, check the Valve clearances. This does not generally need checked UNLESS someone has recently done a "valve job" on it and as often the tenancy, left excessive clearance "just to be sure". The "easy Spin" cam acts off the Intake Valve Cam Lobe to hold the Intake Valve open very late into the compression stroke to relieve some compression for starting ease. The starters on these engines are taxed to near limit when all is ideal. Almost forgot, often excessive carbon build up in the heads also can cause this condition by increasing the compression ratio, overloading the starter. Walt Conner

No - I checked that. I have googled and found a few instances of this problem - and they all seem to relate to IE8. No real solutions, though some have seemed to correct it. I guess I can save the attachement and just open it from my desktop. Thanks for your input RC.

A couple of other things have happened, too. All of a sudden I lost my sound, again, and I get a message saying "Found new Hardware" but it can't find a driver to install. Then my printer stopped printing and I get a message saying "Could not find Post Script Interpreter defined in your settings. Check your settings under Advance options.... applications." Has my computer been fried or is it something I've done and can be fixed? I did a restore system yesterday back two weeks but it's still not right. Again, thanks in advance.

Unable to clean Inbox

I suggest, that you might want to make some folders that are separate to store some of that mail in, because, that is way too many messages stored in the inbox and that was why you were having the problem. I never store any messages in my inbox. I either delete them, once I have read, or answered them, or if it is something that I do want to keep, I put it in a folder with that persons name (if it is someone I hear from regularly), or in a folder called saved. You are actually lucky, that it just caused a problem with deleting, because, I have seen many times, where the mail wouldnt even open, until the dbx was removed from the outlook express folder. Good Luck to you and Merry Christmas. Cat

Think its hold down the Shift key (might be control key) then right click your .eml ,,, and it will have a context menu item that says ...Open with... then check the box to always open with.. find your Windows Live Mail, hopefully right there.

I have tried that. I am given the tutorial with a zipped material file. I click open, the material file opens but I can't get the material. This is a link to the site I am having trouble with.

I download a few tutorials and when I opened the zipped material file, it went into windows/temporary Internet Files/Content.IE5. I then dragged it to my desktop. I am running Win7 64bit with Windows live mail.

I believe that not being able to open .eml messages once outside of Outlook Express was one of the curses of the program.

I can't really recommend it since I just now installed it to test but:

http://www.tucows.com/preview/853721/EML-Viewer

may do what you want. I downloaded one of those tutorials(it had an "eml" extension) and opened it with EML-Viewer, giving me this:

{{gwi:1438257}}

Edit: By the way, tucows did try to slip an AVG toolbar/homepage etc. into the installer so maybe it would be better to get it directly from the vendor? http://www.nucleustechnologies.com/eml-viewer.html The only reason I did not was because I couldn't find the magic word "freeware" on the vendor site, on tucows I did. :)
