http://www.sharpened.net/helpcenter/file_extension.php?eml http://filext.com/detaillist.php?extdetail=eml http://www.sharpened.net/helpcenter/file_extension.php?msg http://filext.com/detaillist.php?extdetail=msg Both extensions are valid. SquirrelMail uses .msg extension, because .eml files are usually blocked by email filtering software (see src/compose.php r.1.347 cvs log). Email client should follow mime headers (message/rfc822) and not file extension. Currently you can't open it due to unrecognized file extension. If SquirrelMail uses .eml extension, Outlook Express 6 won't open it due to Meniu -> Tools -> Options -> Security tab -> second checkbox from the top. Extension is set in src/compose.php (two places with '.msg') and in src/download.php (one place with $suffix = 'msg') -- Tomas ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is Sponsored by the Better Software Conference & EXPO September 19-22, 2005 * San Francisco, CA * Development Lifecycle Practices Agile & Plan-Driven Development * Managing Projects & Teams * Testing & QA Security * Process Improvement & Measurement * http://www.sqe.com/bsce5sf -- squirrelmail-users mailing list Posting Guidelines: http://squirrelmail.org/wiki/wiki.php?MailingListPostingGuidelines List Address: [email protected] List Archives: http://news.gmane.org/thread.php?group=gmane.mail.squirrelmail.user List Archives: http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?forum_id=2995 List Info: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/squirrelmail-users
