The problem is more complex: 1. iceweasel has it's own list of file types/handlers 2. the same type of file (e.g. .pdf) is distributed differently by sites A possible solution for both could be an extension that enabled iceweasel to use the systems MIME type database, but can't find it right now. Even then, some sites are just broken, and you will need to add entries (in iceweasel or the system MIME type database) for each of those "file types". Hmm... I almost sent the mail when I noticed you asked about icedove not iceweasel, but the above should apply to both.
