I'm using Evo 2.8.0. I got a "WAV" attachment, and there was no option to open it directly, like Thunderbird offered.
This is due to a bug in this version of Evo, which does not follow the MIME standard that mime-types should be case-insensitive. The attachment I got had a MIME type of "audio/x-WAV". Evo should have recognized that this was the same as "audio/x-wav", but it did not. ( For reference: http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc2045.html "Matching of media type and subtype is ALWAYS case-insensitive" ) The workaround, at least on Mandriva Linux 2007, was to edit /usr/share/applications/defaults.list I found that line that said: audio/x-wav=totem.desktop I added another line below it: audio/x-WAV=totem.desktop Then (after perhaps a restart of Evo), it offered me the option to open the wav file with Totem, as I wanted.
