. Ok, I think she sent them to me as "text messages" at first? Not sure what happened but Thunderbird showed them as .txt attachments which when viewed with notepad was missing essential information, e.g. telephone numbers. Resent and now Thunderbird displays the essential stuff:
Dr. MAISENBACHER.vcf
BEGIN:VCARD VERSION:3.0 PRODID:-//Apple Inc.//iPhone OS 12.3.1//EN N:MAISENBACHER;Dr.;;; FN: Dr. MAISENBACHER ORG:Veterinary Heart Care— Cardiologist Dog MURPHY; TEL;type=WORK;type=VOICE;type=pref:(757) 605-1610 END:VCARD
Not pretty but it is sufficient for the "what to do while she is away emergency list." And Mousepad also displays the attachment as in Thunderbird. It appears that the problem was the way the files were sent, what I received was corrupted or not complete ...
Thanks to all, Bob
