I don't know if this is part of your problem, but I found it necessary
to add the "force_html" switch to lynx in my .mailcap.  I.e.:

   text/html; lynx -force_html -dump %s ; copiousoutput
   
Otherwise I would just get the HTML source.  (Mutt's temporary file
names don't have .html extensions, so lynx was assuming it was just a
plain text file.)  I also added:

   auto_view text/html

to my .muttrc so that HTML attachments are displayed automatically (I
think that's what it does).  Hope this helps.
