SeaMonkey knows quite well that EML is a mail file; forwarded mail
as an
attachment is in EML format. It appears simply that one cannot open
files from the command line in the mail component. Although SM takes
files on the command line, setting the -mail switch does not open the
EML file, it just opens the Mail window.
Just as a test, on my *Linux* SeaMonkey Mail & Newsgroup screen, I
selected File->Open File... and pointed to an .eml file on one of my
Win7 drives and it opened in what looked sort of like a second Mail &
Newsgroups screen except it didn't have the Accounts or Threads Panes.
Is this what the OP was after??
File | Open File... opens EML files just fine. That is not what the OP
wants. He already knows about it and does that. He wants to be able to
open the EML file by double-clicking it from Windows Explorer.
.....and he was already told how.

Except for the fact that it doesn't work. ;-)
SeaMonkey cannot open EML files in the Mail component via the command
line, only in the browser (which shows all the ugliness of the mail
headers). What the OP wants to accomplish cannot be done with SeaMonkey.
When I wrote my batch file idea, I thought SM would open files in the
mail window as it does in the browser window. It does not.
It was a nice idea, but FAIL.
really?....the OP said "Tranes's batch file approach did work with some
modifications. " on 8/7 (IDR how2 link by mssg-ID)
