Re: HTML mail: Why isn't it displayed?

The manual doesn't say. Based on the mailcap_path entry in man muttrc I would say that mutt uses all the entries in all the files. Perhaps you could shorten the path so that you only need to worry about one file.

Mutt displays the HTML garbage as plain text, unreadable. Now I've no idea if the problem is with mutt, or if the headers or something else are wrong. I made a copy of your original post in another maibox. Then I edited that message, moving the quoted headers into the header section. When I view your message in the mutt pager I see the html tags, since I don't have implicit_autoview set in my muttrc. When I press 'v' (for view-attachments) I see one entry [text/html, quoted, iso-8859-1,] in the attachment view. When I view that attachment the html is rendered (and nicely disappears). The relevant entry in my mailcap file is: text/html; w3m -dump %s; nametemplate=%s.html; copiousoutput It also renders OK with this mailcap entry: text/html; w3m %s | less; nametemplate=%s.html If the problem is with the email, it would be nice to know which RFCs are to be applied so that I can refer the sender of these mails to them and have them send them correctly encoded. While I can't comment on the message you received, its reasonable facsimile is rendered by w3m through mailcap on my system. That tells me that your message is probably OK and that something is wrong with your mailcap. Or, maybe your mailcap is fine and you don't have implicit_autoview set and you're expecting to see only text in the mutt pager. Do you have problems with any other html messages? -- Monte

When I switched to mutt 1.5.20 (compiled by me) it behaved as per what you have now. I guess this means that the behavior changed from version .18 to version .20, a compile option is missing or a patch is missing. I tried vanilla 1.5.18 compiled myself and it did not have this fetaure so I think it has to be a debian patch - which is not included in 1.5.20 debian package anymore, I will take a look at it. This behavior used to annoy me when I first started using my own mutt 1.5.20 but I don't give it a second thought now as I use the index numbers to navigate. I though also, merely combining the usage of displaying subscribed imap mailboxes only AND these index numbers, but this is a bit ugly with subfolders so this feature still would be quite comfortable.

Any other thoughts on what may be causing this? No, but you can try a few things to narrow it down. Run mutt without the system muttrc. -- $ mutt -n Run mutt without your muttrc -- $ mutt -F /dev/null Maybe that second one will be no good because your mailboxes are defined in your muttrc. Build a testing muttrc; with just your mailboxes. $ mutt -F ~/my-testing-muttrc Do you get the same result when replying or group replying to messages in each of these tests? -- Monte
