  • How to open .msg attachments

    I upgraded recently Leopard 10.5.1. Previously I was working 10.4.10 so I do not have experience with Mail from 10.5.0.
    In Leopard Mail 3.1 (914/915) I am receiving some mails with files xyz.msg and abc.msg (example names) attached. Those files do not show up with the paper clip attachment symbol in the Message Viewer window but they do show up as attachments within the message themselves and under the messages 'attachment triangle'.
    In 10.4.x these sorts of files used to be imbedded within the mail message itself - seemingly like HTML embedded content. I could read the content and print it from within Mail and it acted like a specially formatted part of the mail message. In 10.5.1 however, these attachments are not rendered in the message, clicking to open them or saving them to the Finder is fine but I do not know with which application they can be read. I tried Text Edit and Safari - both can open the .msg files but only as HTML source.
    Has anyone out there seen this behavior and have an idea for how to view these attachments, or better still, view them in the original message as per the old behavior?
    Although in 10.4 I had "Display remote images in HTML messages" turned off for security, I also tried that here without effect.
    Thanks to all.

    I've had the same issue in 10.5.1 (not sure about 10.5.0). I've narrowed it down a bit however. I noticed that I always get the .msg (which can't really be read) when the sender uses Squirrelmail (webmail) to forward as attachment. When the sender uses Outlook and forwards as attachment, I get an email with no attachment. The size of the email indicates that there should be, but none is visible. However, when the sender uses Mail 3.1, the attachment works as expected (an envelope is shown that can be opened by a click).
    Perhaps different mail clients use different methods when forwarding an email as an attachment? I'm sure this is a bug in Mail, but it certainly is frustrating!
    Has anyone else seen this sort of behavior?

    how can I open winmail.dat attachments on my Mac.  I can on the Ipad but not the Mac.

    Alternatively, ask the sender(s) to change their Microsoft Windows email client settings; that change can be done with the client for a specific recipient (you, in this case), or globally when Exchange Server and Active Directory is involved; details here (HT2614), and here and here at Microsoft.

  • How to open RTF on Z10 ?

    Hello, 
    I very often receive attachments in RTF format. How can i open them ? 
    DocTogo does not work. I have been search this and other forums for answer and what i find was not working. 
    Apps "MyDoc2PDFConverter" will not help cause i can't install it on Z10. 
    Is anybody know how to open rtf attachments ?

    RTF is a old microsoft only way of doing email and hardly many I deal with use it any more.
    Might be best to ask the person sending to change to HTML or plain text.

  • How can I open email attachments in Pages?

    I am unable to open email attachments such as Word docs and PDFs in Pages. If I select them I get "open in mover lite." Until recently, when I selected them I could open in iBooks but that is no longer an option for me. I am not sure iBooks would help anyway!

    according to MS KB article:
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/278061
    That file is made when someone is using Rich text format and attaches a file. Have them switch to either HTML or plain text and reatatch the file and you should see the proper attachments.

  • Can't open Word attachments. How to fix?

    When someone sends me a Word document in an email, I can't open it on my IPhone or IPad. It asks me if I want to open it in an app called The Vault, which is not a word document. How do I fix this?

    Does the attachment include the name of the document? Usually the very end will have the extension.
    The name should be something like Laundry list.doc.
    What happens if you press and hold a finger on the attachment? Do you get a list of options for what you can use to open the attachment? If so, and one of them is Mail, try picking it to see if that helps.
    If your'e not seeing the name of the file and the extension, it may be worth removing The Vault from one device, just to see if you can open the attachments as usual. If so, that suggests a problem with how the app was designed to work with iOS.
