Opening an Msg File in Windows Mail
« on: January 17, 2009, 11:27:36 AM »
Hello,

Am working from home today and all is fine apart from i cant open msg files from my clients ftp site.

It works fine whilst at work as they have outlook express set up and it actually opens the files. However i dont have outlook express on this computer but have windows mail which as i understand is an updated version of outlook express?! Now when i come to open the file(email) it loads up Windows Mail but does not show any information or emails.

Has anyone any experience with this?

thanks
xx

Sorry, no experience of this but couldn't you download an Outlook Express program from the web and just use it when you need to.
