I think it's the other way around. I can view WMV video from an email (just can't save it) and can not play audio from my Magicjack VM messages.

I just posted the official specs from the Motorola website.

The WMV files from your email are most likely streaming files, located on a website, which results in a different way of accessing the files (streaming).
