Mutt looks in other places for your mailcap file as well, so if
you don't find what you're looking for there, look in the mutt
manual, chapter 5, section 3, "MIME Viewer configuration with
mailcap", for a list of those other places. To find the values of
the $PKGDATADIR and $SYSCONFDIR symbols mentioned there, execute
mutt -v
from the shell. You might also want to execute this command,
set ?mailcap_path
within mutt to see if mutt's default places have been overridden by
this variable's setting.
