Windows 10: Saving files in e-mail to folders in PDF only and Not html.

When someone sends me a PDF file in an e-mail, I was able to download and save them in my folders as PDF files. Now when someone sends me a file, I try to download and save as PDF to my folders, but I can't. It only saves them as html. How can I change this. I noticed also that my e-mail address on top used to be just MSN.COM now it says outlook live.com


How can I fix this. Thanks

:)

 

Viewing attachments in HTML e-mails

I saw that thread, but it's unrelated to the problem I'm having. The user there is complaining of an inability to view e-mail messages that are forwarded as attachments, while .jpg and .pdf files, etc. are fine. What I'm noticing is that .jpg and other image
file types are excluded from the listing of attachments to an HTML e-mail altogether after being downloaded, so that if they're not embedded in the message using HTML <img> tags, they are impossible to view on the phone.

I believe what's happening is that image files are suppressed from the attachment list for HTML e-mails so that mass-mailings and newsletters with a lot of images don't show a massive list of attachments for all the embedded images. It makes some sense to
suppress a listing of embedded image file attachments for this reason. Butall image file attachments are being suppressed from the listing if the e-mail is composed in HTML format rather than using plain text. So if I e-mail an image from
Outlook on my computer to a friend who's using WP7, he won't be able to see the attachment if I have Outlook set to compose in HTML. If it's set to compose in plain text, the attachment shows up just fine.

It's quite annoying to receive e-mails from friends that obviously have attached images, but not be able to see the image until I get to my computer. This one really should be addressed.

Saving worpad file as html

When I save the WordPad file as "all file types" it is supposed to save with the file extension of "HTML"; however the file type listed in the folder is "Text Document" - which can't be read as HTML.
