Title:
  a PDF file could not be opened claiming it is a text/plain file

Status in “evince” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  This  PDF file came as an email attachment.
  The file is correctly opened on Windows XP using free software SumatraPDF .

  In Evince 3.2.1, the error message says it could not open it because
  it is a "text/plain" file. (Ubuntu 11.10 gnome classic).

  In Nautilus, the mime type is  displayed as "application/pdf".

  On another computer with Ubuntu 10.10 and Evince 2.32.0 the behavior is 
different :
  - from the email client (Thunderbird), trying to open the file leads to the 
same error ;
  - when the file is saved on the hard disk, then it can be opened correctly.

  With evince 3.2.1. it never opens.
