mailcap - Associates helper applications with particular file types.

License: public domain
Vendor: Scientific Linux
Description:
The mailcap file is used by the metamail program.  Metamail reads the
mailcap file to determine how it should display non-text or multimedia
material.  Basically, mailcap associates a particular type of file
with a particular program that a mail agent or other program can call
in order to handle the file.

Mailcap should be installed to allow certain programs to be able to
handle non-text files.
