   Why do refer at all to "the browser opening a window"?   
   What program are you using to read the email?   
      
   I have SeaMonkey 2.53.21 installed on a Debian 12.8 system whose desktop   
   is MATE 1.26.0 . IIRC I used Synaptic to install SeaMonkey {accepting   
   all default choices}.   
      
   I use SeaMonkey to read all emails and open USENET groups.   
   When I open an email with an attachment and I click on its file name, a   
   window pops up.   
      
   One of its headings is "What should SeaMonkey do with this file?".   
      
   It offers two choices:   
      open with selected tool  [from a drop-down list]   
   			OR   
      save file   
      
   I suggest that if you something else, offer a more detailed description   
   of what you see.   
      
   What is your OS/desktop?
