Hello everybody, Like everybody, I receive emails with docs in attachment. When I click on them, they do not open. How can I tell evolution to open with swrite?
IIRC you have 2 options on attachments save to disk and open. If open does not work it is because there is no mime type default for the file (it may be a foreign type or maybe it had no extension?) If the file has an extension - save the file to disk, and then open it using the right-click, select properties, select the open-with tab. Select the program you want to open the file with. This type of file will now always be opened with the program you specified whether in Nautilus or evolution
If the attachment has no extension, Linux may not be able to figure out a mime-type and may not be able to assign a default program. May be you could contact the person sending you these and ask that they use Open Office? or some other standard types.
Good Luck Scott
