I have Red Hat 6.1 and some sample mime.types files for mutt. 
I rebuilt mutt to include PGP/GnuPG and so installed via source
rpms. The mutt-produced files I see are in
        /usr/src/redhat/BUILD/mutt-1.0pre2-us/mime.types
        /usr/src/redhat/BUILD/mutt-1.0pre3/mime.types
        /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES/mutt-1.0pre2-us/mime.types
        /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES/mutt-1.0pre3/mime.types

I would guess they are in the source rpm but not put anywhere by
the binary rpm. 

Hmm. Is this what's supposed to occur? Putting mime.types into 
/usr/doc along with the mailcap and muttrc samples might be a 
thought..? Or is there a reason it's not put there?

If you aren't sure how to unpack a source rpm and get at the
different files inside it, mail me, and I'll send directions.
I did start by including it here, but my explanations can get
a bit wordy...
