You may want to check your auto_view settings, as well as verify that your mailcap entries meet the requirements for auto_view. It _sounds_ to me almost as though you don't have a copiousoutput mailcap entry for the MIME type (most likely text/html). See http://www.mutt.org/doc/manual/#auto-view for details. And unrelated, but you probably want to plan to upgrade that Debian system as soon as practical; Debian 10 is out of even long term support (it's now ELTS) since about a week, and Debian 11 stops getting security updates very soon (Wikipedia puts end of security support for Debian 11 at July 2024). Current stable is Debian 12. -- Michael Kjörling 🔗 https://michael.kjorling.se “Remember when, on the Internet, nobody cared that you were a dog?”
