You need:
1- To define a viewer in mailcap for text/html attachments (you have
already done it)
2- 'auto_view' parameter in .muttrc:
auto_view text/html
Read the section with this sentence
"automatically viewing MIME attachments while in the pager"
in manual:
http://www.mutt.org/doc/devel/manual.html#auto-view
3- Maybe you also need an 'alternative_order' parameter in .muttrc.
