You can have two (or more) entries.
- one for viewing from the attachment menu.
- and one for autoview with the copiousoutput statement

# used when (v)iewing
text/html; /usr/bin/opera -newpage '%s'; test=test -n "$DISPLAY"

# for autoview
text/html; /usr/bin/links -dump '%s' -assume-codepage ISO-8859-1; 
copiousoutput; description=HTML Text; nametemplate=%s.html
