Thanks, Cal, I'll try that...soon when I get up the nerve and energy to do
so. Or maybe I'll just tell those people that send .email files to stop
sending .email files.
My nephew was able to resend some .email videos after putting them in .wmv
format....

I am so sorry.

It looks like the best (only?) thing to do is to rename the .email files to .eml
(right click on the file and select rename. Use the arrow key to move the cursor
to the right of the dot and then delete email and type in eml. Press Enter and
accept the warning about renaming files. THEN... you will have to drag the files
into a folder (you can drop them onto a folder icon in the left folders view or
into the right message list pane) in an open instance of Windows Mail and drop
them into a folder. This will COPY the files to a Windows Mail folder and then
you can read them like any other e-mail.

It seems that Windows Mail can only read and display files that are in it's own
folders AND with the .eml extension.

This seems very labor intensive, but after much experimentation it is the only
way I could get Windows mail to read and display .email files. I do not know how
to change only the file extension for multiple files.

Again, I am sorry for giving you bad information.

Cal Bear, maybe you can help me, too. I get the same error code when I ask
Media Player to play a file with a ".email" extension. I'm running Vista,
with the latest (presumably) Media Player. I've tried opening in "Windows
Mail" and in "Outlook." On my old XP machine I used Outlook Express, and
could never open .email files. I have a handful of correspondents that open
.email files, no problem. I've tried several methods suggested in MS
articles. (One suggested I save as ".eml" file, but I don't know how to do
that.) Technologically impaired...Thanks

What format does the camera use to record videos (the last three

the
file name after the dot )?

If it is .MOV, then it is a QuickTime file and you need to install
QuickTime
from apple.com. QuickTime files do not playback in Windows Media
Player.

I think you are confused here -- .email and .eml are formats for sending text
based e-mail messages. Video files NEVER have an extension of .email or .eml.

E-mails can have video files as ATTACHMENTS (extensions such as .avi, .wmv,
..mov, .mpg, etc.). But, an e-mail itself is NEVER a video file and cannot open
in any video player.

No doubt I am confused! I received an e-mail with the following attachment :
"FW_beergoggles.email (1.59 MB)" I have received other e-mails with
attachments having the ".email" file extension on it---and cannot open. I
have received attachments with ".eml" file extensions that I have been able
to open with Windows Media Player, I swear! . All of these are VIDEO files.
My nephew was able to send beergoggles as a .wmv file that I could open. Just
don't understand how I'm getting e-mails with video attachments tagged as
".email!"
Please, Cal, if you're tired of this thread, you can choose to not respond.
I really appreciate your help. Upon re-reading my earlier notes to you, I see
that I did not make it clear that I was trying to open VIDEO files. Cheers....

Sounds like you haven`t got the correct codec in
Home premium for your camera..
(whose name and type you didn`t mention !!)

Download and run Gspot.exe,from here...
http://www.headbands.com/gspot/download.html

Run it and feed it one of your videos.
It will tell you which codec you need to D/load, to enable
you to play them.
