On websites, eCard's are usually flash files. Send it to a Mac user and
see. They might be able to open it fine. I'm not familiar with Hallmark
eCards, so they might be different.

Personally, I never open any "cards" sent to me since, in my experience,
80% of them are malware.

Thanks for all responses.
Have been in touch, (after 1st posting), with Hallmark/Sierra support who
advised me, that file extention should be converted from exe to avi. in order
to effect e-mail delivery from Windows to Mac. I Googled and found there is a
freeware software, (exe2avi) that might be the answer. Will try it out.
