That's done in your $HOME/.mailcap file. I guarrantee you, many
examples of .mailcap files for lynx are available on the internet. I

Now, as to your other problem respect your configurations enough to back
them up onto one or more flash drives and don't loose those flash
drives. This is how after a reinstall I put configurations back quickly
and correctly. Now let's see if I put my .mailcap file up on panix for
just such a situation as you find yourself in:
Yes this is an example .mailcap file for you to get you started modify
