I have fiddled with the registry and file type definitions here to
make .eml and .msg files identical in definition as "msgfile" types.
When the registry contains a file type definition for opening
"msgfile" types, msg files are opened internally to TB and eml files
are opened using the external editor (I have set that to be TextPad
now, where it was originally a RunDll call for the OE Message Viewer
DLL).
When the registry no file type definition for opening "msgfile" types,
msg files are opened internally to TB and eml files are not opened (a
dialog box opens asking which application to use).
I have found "msg" as a known extension within the source code for TB.
"eml" is not mentioned.
My conclusion is that, in theory, no-one should be able to open eml
files in the TB internal viewer. Yet some can :-/. IMHO, it will take
a code change in TB to make this a cross platform / configuration
feature.
