Re: SM2 and attached wmv file in a mail
Ray_Net: Now with SM2 the only way to play this file is to save it on disk then double-click when under the disk explorer. g Mhm, i just tried it by sending a PM to me with an attached .wmv. Plays happily after double-clicking. :) But i am on Linux and not using such an ancient SM as you. ;) Hartmut ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
