Mountain Lion: Mail stops responding when adding an EPS attachment

Products Affected

Mail, OS X Mountain Lion

Symptoms

When adding an EPS attachment to a Mail message, Mail may stop responding until you quit and reopen it.

Resolution

As a workaround, use a different attachment type, or access your email account through a web browser and attach the file.

Alternatively, first compress the EPS file and then attach the compressed (.zip) version of that file to the Mail message. To compress it, select the .eps file in the Finder and then choose File > Compress.
