and you rename mimestype.rdf in ~/Thunderbird/Profiles/*defaults/ ?

I have a similar issue.
When I try to save pdf attachments I get an error. It says me about "Incorrect file name" and suggests me to check the file name.
I've upgrated recently from 3.1.10 to 5.0.
Before it was OK.

It was in version 10.0.0.
I've just updated to version 10.0.1 and it works properly now.
Thanks.
