Hey Everyone,
I switched to Mutt the other day as my main MUA and so far, my
experience with Mutt has been a good one except for one thing:
All of the image files I have sent to myself as attachments keep
coming back as text files filled as gibberish (fortunately, I haven't
gotten any legit image files)! Rather than open the files, XV will
send back an error message stating "Can't open display." Does this
have to do with the base encoding or is it perhaps an error in my
config files (i.e. /etc/mailcap, .muttrc, mime.types)?
I have done much tinkering with the /etc/mailcap file, but to no
avail. What's strange is that I have no problems at all viewing gifs
and jpg/jpeg files with XV through Lynx, but the problem seems to be
only affecting Mutt.
Right now, I'm using Mutt 0.9.3 and have even upgraded to 1.0.3, but
the problem persists. I have also sent image files to myself from
both this web account and from my ISP account via Mutt.
TIA,
Steve
