The w3m bit doesn't work for me, mutt itself opens it and fails to format it. I have to type | to pipe it to w3m (or save the file).

There's a commandline option to pass the document type to w3m: '-T text/html', I believe, confirm on the manpage.

It'll force any given file, or stdin, to be interpreted as HTML. It helps to remember that w3m was originally created as a generic file / directory browser. It's Web capabilities were somewhat incidental, though that's what it's largely used for now.

Sounds a problem with your mailcap.
