My guess is that your mailcap entry looks something like this:
text/html; dillo -dump %s; copiousoutput
Mutt does not add a .html extension to its temporary files by default,
so dillo thinks it's reading a plain text file. There are two ways to
fix this. Some browsers have an option like -force_html to force the
browser to treat the input as HTML. The other way is to use the
nametemplate mailcap field:
text/html; dillo -dump %s; nametemplate=%s.html; copiousoutput
Mozilla works properly because it assumes that everything is HTML unless
specified otherwise. At least that's the way my Netscape Navigator
seems to work.
BTW, I assumed that you wanted this for in-line viewing of HTML e-mail,
and I know nothing about dillo, so I assumed that it has a -dump option.
HTH,
