Hi,
how large the attachments are, please? It can be that the text-
highlight module causes the slowness, it used to be the reason in the
past. You can move it away from
/usr/lib64/evolution/modules/module-text-highlight.so
or wherever your distribution has it installed. Then you'll lose the
syntax highlighting, but it'll be quicker. Newer version has this
addressed, of course.

It depends. Does the corresponding part contain:
Content-Disposition: inline
header? If so, then it is suggested to show it inline. This can be
disabled in GSettings:
$ gsettings set org.gnome.evolution.mail display-content-disposition-inline
false
but I've no idea whether your ancient version has that option or not,
I'm sorry. If it's without that header, well, there can be a way
to write a module for it, but I'm not sure whether it could be used in
your version.
Bye,
Milan
