Is there any way to see inline images in mutt pager view in terminal? I've tried w3m but it requires w3m-img which seems not for macos/osx. Can anyone suggest if it's possible to integrate imgcat(avaiable in iterm2) in mailcap? Please suggest complete steps/any solution for displaying images in terminal for mutt mail agent. Thanks a lot in advance.

Unfortunately it's not possible to use imgcat
to show images directly in built-in pager using mailcap and autoview at least from my findings.
Try following line in Your mailcap file
image/*; (clear && imgcat %s && read -N 1); needsterminal
Then hit v
to show attachments, select any image attachment and press <enter>
.
To get back to mutt, just press any key.

Thanks Jakub, do you know any other way to view it directly? Means not as an attachment but like in mail body like Gmail? – Maruf Jun 16 '20 at 19:41

I tried it several times and different approaches before and it didn’t work. But you can try asking on #mutt #neomutt channels on Freenode. There’s more brainpower. You can reflect your findings here later. – Jakub Jindra Jun 16 '20 at 22:45
