Anyone using icedove here ? One of the problems I have with Icedove is that if there is an attachment, the default behavior is less than ideal.
For example, if an attachment is pdf, I can't get it to open up acroread or xpdf to view it. I have to save it and then open it in a viewer as a 2 or more steps.
Similarly, if there is an archive, zip, rar or others, I would like to bring up a viewer to look at it. Saving is only optional.
Any input ?
btw, I used to have problem with http link in the icedove, I did remember I have to modify a few things to get it to open up iceweasel ( if it is not open at that moment ) and open a new tab ( if it has already been open ). How primitive it is !
