Package: icedove
Version: 1:45.1.0-1~deb8u1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

I found this behaviour in icedove:

1. Click "Write" to compose a new message
2. Attach a PDF file
3. Double-Click the attached file (i.e. to verify it's the right one)

Expected behaviour:
Icedove asks whether to open or save the file, and when clicking "open", the
attachment opens with the associated application

Real behaviour:
Icedove asks whether to open or save the file, and when clicking "open",
nothing happens

Until now, I can only reproduce that with PDF files, but not with plain text,
OpenDocument, JPEG - these behave as expected.
Opening PDF attachments from *received* messages (or messages in the "Sent"
folder) works as expected. Occurs with several different accounts.

Since I regularly double-check attached files before sending, I am pretty sure
this worked in earlier versions.

Might be an upstream bug since it occurs in thunderbird for Ubuntu as well.

I tried running icedove from the console but got no helpful output. Tried in
safe mode, does not change anything.
