48621 2002-05-13 04:32:00 Any suggestions on how to dissect out an audio file embedded in an email. I use IE. and ME =:o) Guest (0)
48622 2002-05-13 05:05:00 Don't know if this is the 'proper' way, but if you open the email, click on Forward to bring up the appropriate dialogue box the audio file attachment should appear in the attachments line.

Take a note of its name and do a search in Windows Explorer to track it down. It will probably be in your Windows/Temporary Internet Files folder somewhere.

Now you can grab it, move it somewhere more permanent and do what you like with it!

48623 2002-05-13 12:33:00 i have a friend (atleast one) who likes to send me silly stuff that she embedds into the email bodies, i found backgrounds, such as moving gifs would 'save background as' a bitmap.. as if that is useful, and sound was inacsessable. This was untill today, when i forwarded the mail to myself, and picked it up through the ISPs webmail prog. This prog seperated the email into it's componants, and allowed me to pick the background out as an attachment, even though it wasn't an attachment as such.

IHUGs webmail thingy wasn't much cop, but the paradise webmail interface desects it beautifully.

There would probably be email progs that couldn't cope with the display of emmbedded baks/sounds and would offer them as attachments too.
