Many thanks for that Mike. Now I see that it all seems so easy. Actually 
I was able to add 'Okular' to the list but I was not able to delete 
'GIMP (default)'. So having added Okular, I then selected it from the 
drop-down box and saved it as that. Now all I need is for someone to 
send me an email with a pdf attachment to test it.
Cheers.
