How do I import .eml attachments to separate email messages?

I received an email message sent from Outlook with multiple attachments.  When this message arrived in my Xfinity email each attachment was then named using the "subject.eml"  Is there a way to import those attachments to separate email messages to my Xfinity email account?

I've looked at the linked article and it'd be helpful IF I were using Outlook to read or access my email through Xfinity.  I'm using the "native" browser-based tool directly rather than some combination using imap and another mail solution.

Thanks

MrVXT A .EML file is just a plain text file that encodes a native email into a usable form in that interface. It sounds like that was saved and attached to the message, but that is technically usable through that form of transmission. I would recommend to reach back to the sender of that message to ask if the information could be put into a usable file type. I would actually recommend them forwarding that specific message, that way you can see the whole body of the message.

I AM the original sender...  I emailed myself from an Outlook instance.  Granted, I DID try to send a group of email messages in one "forwarded" email.  If there's no other solution than saving to a text file I should still have the original source and could email each one separately.

MrVXT You would typically want to forward each message independent of each other. Attempting to collab all of that into one message would typically cause some hiccups. Most email systems work in proprietary formats, so using an Outlook formatted file to relay to a browser based system would not typically translate to a usable form for you or other users depending on their client or browser based platform.
