Åbne vedhæftet tmp fil i mail

When I get an attachment as a reply in an email it is with tmp file name. It cannot be opened because Thumberfird does not have a file association program, Using libre office with here I cannot find a file association either. Hoping for some help. Thanks in advance. PS. Should the questions be asked in English?

The problem with a tmp suffix, is that neither Thunderbird nor Windows knows the appropriate program to use. I suggest asking the sender for that information.

Tak det løser så ikke problemet. I outlook oplevede jeg ikke det problem. Underligt Thumberbird ikke kan lave noget lignende. Der er jo ikke alle afsendere der kan sende så det kan åbnes og så skal jeg kontakte alle dr sebder filer til mig.ØV ØV men tak for svaret alligevel. Problemet opstår når jeg gemmer det i afsenderens mappe, ikke når jeg lige har modtaget og åbnet den.

It will help to know the suffix of the file when sent by the other person. It may also prove useful to ask the individual to send again (assuming the suffix is not tmp) and check how the message is received at your email provider's website, before the message is received by thunderbird. My concern for you is whether the attachment when sent had a specific suffix that was inappropriately changed during transmission, at receipt by your email provider, or by thunderbird.
