I'm not 100% sure, if the file is sent as an attachment for example you would have to download it first then right click and "open with".... but by downloading the file in the first place it would have to be saved on the hard drive

Only problem I can see from that is that FTM will expect to open a file from there next time. |
I have never tried to close FTM with a stick attached to the computer, but as you say, the way FTM opens files (through filepaths) it seems reasonable to assume it would look for the stick when you attempt to open that particular file again.
