I attached a file created with LyX 1.5.7 at home to an email and sent it to my office, where it arrived with its LyX code displayed (with first line "#LyX 1.5.7 created this file" following five lines of Apple Mail content information). How do I open this file in LyX 1.6.5 at my office?

Unless I'm missing something obvious, this should be simple.
- Copy all the lines starting with "#LyX 1.5.7 created this file" until the end, and paste them into a text editor.
- If Apple Mail added unnecessary lines, remove them
- Save the text file as 'file.lyx'.

Then 1.6.5 should recognise it as a valid LyX file. Regards
