It's probably an .eml attachment (that's E M L , poor font design
obscures the difference between upper-case I and lower-case l )

.eml attachments are actual e-mail messages, so it makes sense for
them to be opened in your mail client, Thunderbird.

You could open it with a text editor, and you'll see all the headers,
MIME sections, and all the raw text.  If the message is B64 encoded
then you may not be able to read it at all.  Thunderbird takes care of
displaying .eml files in a human-readable format.
