When you open such a mail, Thunderbird only looks at the MIME header and does not open acroread when it encounters application/octet-stream.

As PDF is an often used format and there are somany broken mailers I'd propose to use the attached patch (or any adaption of it) that let Thunderbird check whether the attachment with the type octet-stream has a name that ends with '.pdf' and in that case resets the content-type to application/pdf. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Send yourself a mail with PDF attachment and content-type 'application/octet-stream' 2.Open the mail in the viewer window 3.Click on attachment Actual Results: A dialog opens where the found attachment is recognized as 'binary data' and you get asked what to do with it. Expected Results: The attachment should be recognized as PDF (from the file name) and the user be asked whether to open it with acroread (or what ever). 11 years ago @Magnus no, unfortunately it doesn't work. I tried to add code like that at other places as well (mimemsg.cpp or mimemult.cpp) but there seems to be other places where the content-type header is accessed directly via MimeHeaders_get() and the rewrite has no effect. The only way I see is to make the rewrite inside MimeHeaders_get(), however there is no MimeDisplayOptions argument available to query the filename via MimeHeaders_get_name(). Any idea how to fix that?

Where is the best place to add such a rewrite check? 10 years ago Comment on patch, v3 This looks good.
