The copiousoutput flag could be making a difference here. That will cause Mutt to render the output of the command internally, which by default will strip all ansi output.Even if I set "allow_ansi"?
With $allow_ansi, Mutt will interpret ansi sequences _it understands_ and convert them to curses calls. I don't currently have viu available to play with, but perhaps it's emitting sequences Mutt doesn't understand.
I've tested against chafa in the past:
image/*; chafa -c 240 -w 9 -s ${COLUMNS-80} -- %s ; copiousoutput
so you might try that too.
However, if this also happens with a regular mailcap invocation (using
<view-mailcap> and an entry without the copiousflag setting), then
something else may be going on.
