Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: thunderbird

I'm getting many emails with links to pdf files (such as
"http://domain.com/document.pdf";).

expected behavior:
when clicking on the link, thunderbird should know this is pdf file and open 
evince (or any other pdf viewer) itself.

current behavior:
thunderbird opens firefox with the link location. firefox then asks me to 
open/save the pdf file.
