>From RFC 1343 (June 1992) :
Location of the Mailcap File(s)
For UNIX, a path search of mailcap files is specified. The
default path search is specified as including at least the
following:
$HOME/.mailcap:/etc/mailcap:/usr/etc/mailcap:/usr/local/etc/mailcap
However, this path may itself be overridden by a path
specified by the MAILCAPS environment variable.
This is what Arena currently supports.
