One thing I've found with some of the Windows e-mail clients (especially
Netscape mail) is that if the extention isn't in the Windows registry, it
won't recognize the file, and it must be opened from the application itself.
Try this:
1) In your mail program, try to click on the attachment to save it. If this
does not prompt you to save the file, right-click, and select "Save Link
As..."
2) When the window prompts you to save the file, make certain that it is
saved with a .rev extension.
3) If it again prompts you for a filename (Netscape does this, allowing only
files of type .txt or .htm to be saved) save it as filename.rev.txt, then go
to Windows Explorer and right-click on the file to Rename it to just
filename.rev. Windows will warn you that changing a file's extension could
cause problems, click OK.
4) Open Revolution, then open the stack from Rev.
Good luck!
