I tried this as well when i had 7.1. I you read the garbage with a text 
editor you will see that you are saving the e-mail and the attachment as a 
file. Hence the mess in Star Office.

To solve this use "Save link as" if i recall correctly. Intuition tried to 
tell me that doing this would only save the URL but it saves the attachment 
perfectly. You just have to overrule intuition.

Hope this helps.
