    What format are the videos in? Check the apple store for an app called VLC Player. It can play most formats (certainly on PCs, not sure about mobile device)

    Are you playing them directly within your email app? Try downloading to the phone first and play from there

    Makes sense. Try downloading one of videos and playing directly from your phone.

    As suggested earlier download VLC and try that to play the files (if you haven't already)
