When receiving e-mails with attached mdf/ldf files (SQL 2005/2012 databases) and sometimes xml files (more rarely) Thunderbird hangs up when viewing the message and when trying to save attachments.

I am using latest Thunderbird x64 on Windows x64 Pro.

Thunderbird is probably trying to display the attachments inline. Go to the View menu then uncheck the option Display Attachments Inline
