Yes and no, it's simpler and more complicated. '~/.mailcap' and '/etc/mailcap' (and couple of others) are smashed together and then some entry wins. Thing is, rules applied are different for mime-tools and mutt, I think.

As I understand your requirements, (just mentioned above) 'alternative_order' list (or is it command?) needs adjustment. Thing is, I can't find a way to query contents of 'alternative_order' *list*, thus you need 'unalternative_order' *command*, and then set *list* with 'alternative_order' *command*. Anyway, this kindof documented in section "MIME Multipart/Alternative". *CUT* -- Torvalds' goal for Linux is very simple: World Domination Stallman's goal for GNU is even simpler: Freedom _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
