Is this still an issue with any file type (PDF or otherwise) now that
Thunderbird 60.5.1 is the currently supported version?

Title:
  can't open an attachement if not listed in registered files types

Status in thunderbird package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: thunderbird

  Hello,

  I received an email with a PDF attachment but I have no way to open it
  except saving it and open it later with my file explorer.

  Before attempting to open the attachement, I had the below file types 
association:
  - file extension: PDF
  - action: open with kpdf
  - mime type: application/pdf

  The attachement had "text/octet-stream" MIME type.

  I get the attached error message.

  Why not proposing a menu entry with an action like "open with..." in
  order to avoid to use the file explorer as a workaround.
