With my email client (Microsoft Outlook) I right click on the attached GEDCOM file (Newall Family Tree.ged), then a menu opens, one of the options being Save As. Left click on Save As and chose a destination to save it to. It could be your computer's hard drive or a USB memory stick.

Researching:
Newall, Gibbins, Lightfoot, Fance (Warrington) Buddle, Swinford (East Kent & Thanet)
