    Microsoft has taken it upon themselves to decide if the content your friends are sending you is safe. In Vista, update KB05866 changed removed your right to decide which attachments are safe. If you uninstall that update and restart your computer, you should get it back.
    Don't talk unless you can improve the silence.

    To open an attachment directly from a message in Windows mail

    2. Open a message that contains an attachment by double-clicking it in the message list.

    3. At the top of the message window, double-click the file attachment icon in the message header.



    To save attachments to a folder on your computer
