Thunderbird choose between pdf preview and open it externally

I like to use the pdf preview feature but, from time to time, I need to open the pdf externally, and I cannot find any way of doing this easily.

I can either always use the pdf preview or always use a pdf reader, but it seems that choosing one removes the possibility of using the other. When I use the pdf preview, I don't see any option to open the pdf externally and when I use the external reader as default or choose "always ask" I don't see any option that would allow me to preview that pdf.

Is there any of having both options easily available or not? Am I missing something? Thanks in advance.
