Never heard of sender or OneDrive. Is this some phishing or virus email? Microsoft Microsoft Corporation sounds odd.
Is this a legit email or malware?

I wouldn't view it unless someone told me previously it was coming, and wanted me to review it.
You could open it in a virtual machine if you really wanted to. But you could get tracked for opening the email and get more malicious emails in the future.
To atikovi and every responder so far.
This may qualify to break a profanity rule but the question email falls under the, "What the he77 is that?" category.
It's among the purest examples of fluff format stuff I've ever seen.

Malware
OneDrive is a Microsoft product/Service. This email is not from Microsoft.

They are all scams
If you receive anything unsolicited it’s always a scam

It’s malware. “document Document”, “Microsoft Microsoft” and the wording “this file would expire in 48 hours”
Would malware have much effect if opened on an unused spare phone? And if I reset to factory specs afterwards?
Anything you are not expecting in an email is NOT LEGITIMATE
Why would you want to open it? Makes no sense.
This is why people get hacked so easy, they are just dying to know what it is. Its human and they prey on peoples weakness in this way. Ask yourself why do you need this document and who is it that you are dealing with sent it to you? Answer - No one
No email is important if you don't know who it is. If anything legal they will send a letter USPS.
Just get in the habit of deleting anything you not expecting that comes in your mailbox.

Just curious what a malware message would say. Will it turn my screen all red or make some loud noises.
A lot of them will hijack information from your computer without you even realizing it.
Hence my question about opening the message on a phone.
Phone is low risk to open compared to a Windows machine.
I’m curious why you would say that.
If anything, IMO it is more of a risk. Most people have more stuff that is valuable to a hacker than an average computer. Stuff like contact lists, banking apps, social media apps, network traffic, etc, are all there for the taking. Mobile phones are not as safe as people think when compared to windows.
