Hello,
I have a little problem that I can't quite figure out (OS is Debian 10.9). On
my current system, using Mutt 2.1.5, I have to use 'm' (view with mailcap) to
open an html part in lynx; hitting Enter simply dumps the contents into the
pager.
On an older system, using NeoMutt 1.7.2, I needed only hit Enter on the html
and it would open in lynx.
Is this a difference in mutt versions, OS versions, or is it a configuration
issue? When does one need to press 'm' to use the mailcap entry to view, and
when does pressing just Enter suffice?
This might be one of those instances in which the difference between
<Enter> and <Return> makes a difference. In newer mutt instances the
same thing was happening to me (or at least I _think_ I remember this
happening) and I had to add this to my .muttrc:
bind attach <Return> view-mailcap
That fixed the issue.
Cheers,
