I have a PDF filename named "RE: something.pdf"

This fails:
        evince "RE: someting.pdf" 
with the error messages on stdout:
        ** (evince:397922): WARNING **: 11:14:02.077: The specified location is 
not supported
        ** (evince:397922): WARNING **: 11:14:02.080: set_filenames: The 
specified location is not supported

The message in the evince window is more interesting:
        Unable to open document “file:///tmp/evince-397922/document.SR35V0- 
        something”.

        The specified location is not supported.

Clearly evince is trying to treat the prefix "RE:" as something magic.  
Just what, I don't know.  But it sure isn't in the evince man page.

This command works fine:
        evince ./"RE: someting.pdf"
