If you have mutt compiled with +DEBUG, then if you start mutt with 
the -d option followed by an integer to specify the debug level, 
mutt will write debug information to a file named .muttdebug0 in 
your home directory.  If mutt finds a file by that name already in 
your home directory, it will increment that trailing digit until it 
finds an unused name.  At some level--I've forgotten which--the 
debug information includes the searching and parsing of mailcap 
files.

HTH,
