weird happening

[Isabel Danforth]

A couple of days ago, and then again today, I opened an email message that
I had read onto my PC using Eudora_lite.

When I opened that message, Eudora crashed.  Upon reopening Eudora, I found
that the message apparently disappeared.  Then I looked in my attachment
directory and found some files, with file type of 'file'

I opened them first in notepad, and then in WORD.  Even with WORD 97, the
files are not clean.  however I can see that they were created with 
	IPM.Microsoft Mail.Note 1

And appear to have subject line of 
	  [WEB4LIB] Re: AOL browser question

Near the end, I see the following.

The file in my attachment directory has a time/date stamp of Nov 9 at 9:07
AM (I am on EST)

Does anyone have an explination?  What kind of file is being sent?  Can I
survive these email crashes?

I would appreciate learning what is happening.  Does it happen to anyone else?
