I usually automatically turn HTML mails into text using lynx and view
them in the mutt pager but occasionally I view them in Firefox by
hitting 'v' and then enter against the HTML part of the message.

Thus my .muttrc file has:-

    auto_view text/html

... and my mailcap has:-

    text/html; /usr/bin/firefox %s
    text/html; lynx -dump %s; copiousoutput; nametemplate=%s.html

The trouble is I'm frequently seeing the temporary HTML file saved by
mutt disappearing before firefox gets to see it, why does this happen
sometimes (almost all the time now)?  It used to work OK.  I have just
moved to a faster computer, would this affect it?


While I'm about it how do the two text/html entries in .mailcap work
so that lynx is used by default but 'v' takes me to firefox?
