I now have _two_ Cygwin/Mutt 1.2.5i's: -rwxr-xr-x 389632 Jan 3 2001 /unixmail/bin/mutt.exe [1] -rwxr-xr-x 608768 Dec 10 11:16 /usr/bin/mutt.exe - from cygwin.com The mutt -v outputs are attached below. FWIW, I re-did all of my tests using /unixmail/bin/mutt -- including mutt -n -- again without success. Then I tried the recently downloaded /usr/bin/mutt -n and mailcap worked immediately. Since fetchmailconf exits with an error under FreeX86 (it was expecting "dns" as a server, even though I was online with a dns server), I will proceed to figure out how to reconfigure everything for /usr/bin/mutt and /usr/bin/fetchmail instead of using the Unixmail package (which had provided fill-in-the-blank configuration).
