My rants about everything

Well, there’s a lot of people sending HTML mails out there. And it’s starting
to get annoying not being able to read them in our favorite mail client, Mutt.
Now, I know, mails being sent in HTML format are usually not worth reading, but
here’s a quick how-to anyways.

in your .mailcap file put something like this:

text/html;links %s; nametemplate=%s.html
text/html;links -dump %s; nametemplate=%s.html; copiousoutput

Now, somewhere in your .muttrc put this line:

auto_view text/html

and you should be all set to read HTML mail in your favorite mail client.
