Yes, it does, but this file is not meant to be edited by hand.
mailcap always overrides everything in firefox.  I spent a day or so
looking through the code, because I had similar issues as paul - I
didn't understand why the actions dialog wasn't like on windows.

Basically, if it's still the same as 1.0.X, it grabs mime info from
gnome (or fails), then grabs info from mimeTypes.rdf (or fails), then
reads mailcap.  Each of these overwrites previous entries (or adds
them to a list, or something like that).
