[Bug 487057] Re: Thunderbird starts virusscan instead of the right application when opening attachments

[Martin Wildam]

Even reboot did not help, but I made further tests and found out
something:

It depends on the PDF. PDFs created with Open Office are recognized
perfectly, but PDFs created on Windows with different PDF creation tool
might not work (need to find out, if general issue with Windows PDFs or
not). I examined mime type and both seem to be application/pdf (at least
that is what Nautilus says). - It also could be, that it is not the PDF
file itself, but how it is packed to the email. All emails with such
PDFs were sent by Outlook (which is a very good sample of crap gotten
widely adopted).
