Hoping I posted this to the correct location...

So I have a treo 750 and have routinely email cabs to an account that I have set up to be checked by pocket outlook on the device and have never had an issue...

So I also have a blackjack and I tried the same exercise and got the following message when clicking on the attachment link of the cab in an email...

"Error - The attachment is of a file type that could be unsafe. Messaging will not open this attachment"

any clues, or has anyone else come across this b4?

PocketPC phones do the same thing, but with PPC's you have the option to tap and hold to "save as" and then open it if you choose. You can't directly ptap and open a cab straight from outlook on the 750.

One of the biggest things that bothers me w/smartphone OS. Messages not deleting off of the server is another. Searchy the forum, there is a way to open the file through file explorer once it is downloaded.

Have you tried forwarding the message to Yahoo (or whatever you use) on the (mobile) web, and then downloading it?
