On that note, it's not a good idea to try and get your program to open
PDFs sent as application/binary-octet, because it'll try to do the same
thing with any other non-PDF file.  Fun and chaos will ensue.

You can try setting it to pass the file to xdg-open, and then xdg-open
will try opening the file in the right application for what the file
is.  See if that changes anything.

If you allow Thunderbird to directly open the PDF in Okular, can you
view properties of the PDF file in Okular, and see where the temporary
file is being loaded from?

A wild thought:  Is it a filename with blank spaces in it?
