Several e-mail servers have the "attachment" feature. I do know that Yahoo! has the "Attachment" feature and so does Thunderbird.
If it was sent through AOL then try to put it on there with Real Player. When you open Real Player, go to the Burn/Transfer tab. Then go to "Add a New Device" and click on it. From there, it should be common sense. I don't own an iPod and don't plan to. Post back here if you get lost.
When I open the song from my e-mail it goes to windows media player. Could I do it from there if not how would I get the song to open to real player from the e-mail? Thanks
Sorry for the late reply. Save the file to your "My Documents" folder (or another folder of your choosing". Then, open up RealPlayer and drag and drop the music file onto RealPlayer. Next, do the steps I told you my last post.
