How can my computer accept email in xls
 
I get e-mails from my headquarters that comes in xls. format and my computer
does not accept them. I have to contact HQ and tell them to send e-mails to
me in pdf. format.

There's a good chance this extremely simple technique will work:
Have the sender change the file extension from xls to txt. That may be all
you need to do to get around the possibly meager security.

Does that help?

Why won't your computer allow *.xls files?

Is it your anti-virus blocking them?

Is it your email client blocking them? What clent are you using? MS Outlook?

Other?

Should be able to re-configure those limitations.
