Okay in my version 91.3.1 I followed your instructions in Suggestion #1 and changed the Content Type "PDF" to "Preview in Thunderbird" and now a new tab opens where I can view the contents of the attached file. It is not like before when Adobe Acrobat would bring up the document, however, at least I may view the contents of the attached document prior to sending the email.
I don't know about the other steps #2-#4 so I am not trying them.
