P.A. Bear,
Thanks for all the help.  I am not that experienced in these matters.    I
must have made a mistake in following your instructions.  I do have a way
of opening the files though.  I can save the .email files to the HD and
rename it to .eml and it will open fine.  I do not get that many of them
so it is not really a problem.
THANK YOU!!!  again for all your help.

Regards,
Ken  A.
