Re: [Evolution] How do I set evolution to use a particular program when opening e-mail attachments

[John Lauterbach <lauterba bellsouth net>]

Here is source from this morning e-mail Content-Type: application/pdf; name="LAB 01 M45 (Moisture - Hearson).pdf"


I also installed Ubuntu Tweaks 14.04 (works with 15.04) and confirmed that PDF was assigned to pdfstudio9.


I just took another step.  I also use Konqeror as a file 
manager.  I tried Konqueror to open a PDF file and nothing 
happened.  Further investigation showed that the file 
association was not calling up psfstudio9.  When I 
corrected that, evolution then picked up the association.

OK.  Can you just check the email source to see what the "Content-Type:"
is for the attached PDF - it should be "application/pdf".
