Lynx currently doesn't do anything special about any multipart/* types.
So such files would be just treated like any other unrecognized type,
or, if you have defined a VIEWER for that type, would use that to
try to process the file. But that isn't very useful since the
boundary=... information will be lost.
The best you can currently do with lynx for multipart/* resources is
probably download them with "lynx -mime_header" to preserve the header
information, then process the result with something else.
