Bug#646462: mime-support: Runs notepad to view text files
Something is creating an entry in the /etc/mailcap (or ~/.mailcap) for this file type. Mime support is just following the instructions there. Brian bcwh...@pobox.com - Treat someone as they are and they will remain that way. Treat someone as they can be and they will become that way.

Mime support is just following the instructions there. Actually, there is no usable entry for text/plain in /etc/mailcap so notepad may be just fallback of some sort. Is there some other type registry other than /etc/mailcap? I don't have ~/.mailcap. Thanks Michal -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

No, there is no automatic fallback in Mime. Check for a text/* entry. It's possible that sensible-editor is doing it, too.
