Here is the setting for w3m I have in my ~/.mailcap: text/html; w3m -v -F -T text/html %s; nametemplate=%s.html; \ needsterminal text/html; w3m -dump %s; nametemplate=%s.html; copiousoutput and in ~/.muttrc: auto_view text/html If you combine this with urlview you will have some flexible ways to view html: http://urlview.darwinports.com/ http://gd.tuwien.ac.at/linuxcommand.org/man_pages/urlview1.html Jostein
