Check if you have the right gnome mime-settings for whatever you are
trying to open. Easiest way would be to run gnome-control-center
(evolution is a gnome-based application so it won't be interested in
your kde settings) and change/define the appropriate "file types and
programs" under "advanced".

You are likely going to have to launch an external program to view
whatever the attachment is, but once Gnome is properly configured you
can do this directly from Evolution.
