Just try opening it with your favorite text editor

    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 Careâ€” 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
