Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: evolution

When I receive an email that contains an attachment, if I attempt to
open it, evolution becomes unresponsive and uses 100% CPU.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Receive an email with an attachment, view that message
2. In the email header block, open the attachments section
3. Double-click the attachment
4. Watch as evolution locks up, and the attachment is not opened.

Expected result:
Evolution keeps running and the attachment is opened in the default viewer.

I've seen this with a few different file types, PDF, PNG, etc.

Right-click->Open in "Something" seems to work properly.
