Cannot Open Attachment

FWIW,

I have had that happen a time or two.  I just enter something between
the ""s and then look at it in an editor.  I also try to find out what
type
of file it is by looking at the results of the 'save attachment' and
also
if it is someone I know, ask them what type file was sent.  The last
two(2) times it turned out to be a Windows Word 97 file, so I just
called
it 'temp.doc' and went from there just like any other attached Word
document.
