Is there any simple way to make Windows 7 and 8 open saved emails, .eml

I realize I can open such a file from the Seamonkey Mail file menu.
Cecil, have you tried Tools->Import... and selecting "Mail"??
As I mentioned, there is no problem opening the .eml file from the
Seamonkey Mail file menu.
My wife wants to be able to double-click the file in a file browser,
such as Windows Explorer, and have it display in Seamonkey Mail.
Seamonkey mail needs to set in Windows 7 and 8 as the default program to
open .eml files. I'm just not sure how to do that, as Windows sees
Seamonkey as a single program rather than a browser and a mail client.
That results in Windows trying to open the .eml file in Seamonkey
browser, which shows only a blank window.
This isn't tested, but you should be able to create a batch file that
opens SeaMonkey with the '-mail' command switch and then set that batch
file as the default application for .EML files, e.g.,
REM Start SeaMonkey -mail
REM
start "C:\<path to SeaMonkey>\seamonkey.exe" -mail
exit
