In my setup I do not have `ext_image_viewer` option so I can not verify

Well can you invoke `w3m` in attachment menu?
You may add `auto_view image/*` in your muttrc to get `w3m` invoked
automatically.

It is strange that with `copious output` your mailcap still works. In my
test when I use `copious output`, `w3m` is not invoked nor given as a option.
BTW, does `w3m` inline image view appear in the form of ascii? Or It
just shows an image inside terminal. If it is the latter, I suppose
there would be problem rendering for mutt as `copiousoutput` can not
exactly describe the situation, and it may mess up your email layout.
