Mutt looks in other places for your mailcap file as well, so if you don't find what you're looking for there, look in the mutt manual, chapter 5, section 3, "MIME Viewer configuration with mailcap", for a list of those other places. To find the values of the $PKGDATADIR and $SYSCONFDIR symbols mentioned there, execute mutt -v from the shell. You might also want to execute this command, set ?mailcap_path within mutt to see if mutt's default places have been overridden by this variable's setting. Regards, Gary
