[Wine] launching wine application for mozilla mail attachments

[Jerry Geis]

hi,

I did that and the file is put in the /tmp/filename.efx directory.
I tried manually running wine myapp.exe /tmp/filename.efx
and it wont open the file from the /tmp directory.

Try redirecting wine's output to a file and see what's going awry.
You probably want to surround $@ with double quotes to avoid problems
with file names containing white-space.
