Hi,
I use set implicit_autoview, and not auto_view. When I receive
text/x-diff inline attachments, these are not shown in the viewer. The
description of implicit_autoview is:
If set to “yes”, mutt will look for a mailcap entry with the
copiousoutput flag set for every MIME attachment it doesn’t havean
internal viewer defined for.
So I suppose the internal viewer should simply handle text/*, or at
least text/x-diff.
To workaround this problem, I added the following entry in my
~/.mailcap:
text/x-diff; cat %s ; copiousoutput
}}}

Comment:
I am closing this bug because the original request was fixed.
For the problem with $implicit_autoview introduced by this fix, see #3496
