When I receive an email with a wav file attached I see the paper clip in the Inbox but cannot see the attachment when I open the email. Is there a way to make the wav file attachment visible? I have downloaded Remote wav to play the attachment once I can access it. Please help.

Is this the stock Casio email app, Gmail, K-9 mail, or some other email application?

Remote Wave Free is the way to go (assuming you are getting Vmails as wav files from some type of Voicemail server, we have hundreds of users using that app), but I am not understanding your question... you should be able to just tap on the attachment, and it should download (it will go to your Downloads directory, typically set in your email application's settings). At that point there should be little bar or icon with the attachment that says something like "Tap to open" or "Tap to listen" like the attached picture this is from an HTC Rezound, but most phones are similar and unfortunately I won't have access to a Casio Commando until Saturday when my son is here to test with.

I see the paper clip on the email when it is listed in the Inbox. I click on the email but see nothing but the email. I click on other emails with attachments and the attachment appears as a button I can select to open. And yes this is for voice mail. Why the person doesn't use call forwarding is beyond me. Sigh.
