Hi List.

In mutt 1.5.23 (from repo), when I'd like to view a message part
in a browser, I'd type "v", view the attachment menu, etc. 

On mutt from source (1.7.1), that same action won't trigger
firefox, but rather keep viewing the attachment using w3m (which
is great as a default in the pager, but if I'm already in the
attachment menu, it means I'm looking for something extra). 

I've copied /etc/mailcap to $muttHOME/etc.

Here's the debug sequence from 1.7.1

and from 1.5.23
