I think you need to set these to variables:
### mime_forward
### Type: quadoption
### Default: unset
### When set, the message you are forwarding will be attached as a separate
### MIME part instead of included in the main body of the message. This is
### useful for forwarding MIME messages so the receiver can properly view
### the message as it was delivered to you. If you like to switch between
### MIME and not MIME from mail to mail, set this variable to ask-no or
### ask-yes.
### Also see forward_decode and mime_forward_decode.
set mime_forward=yes
### mime_forward_decode
### Type: boolean
### Default: unset
### Controls the decoding of complex MIME messages into text/plain when
### forwarding a message while mime_forward is set. Otherwise forward_decode
### is used instead.
unset mime_forward_decode

Hmm, not quite sure. Try this:
### mailcap_path
### Type: string
### Default: $MAILCAPS or
###
~/.mailcap:/usr/local/share/mailcap:/etc/mailcap:/usr/etc/mailcap:/usr/local/etc/mailcap
### This variable specifies which files to consult when attempting to
### display MIME bodies not directly supported by Mutt.
set mailcap_path="~/.mailcap"
