You can configure (Al)pine interactively as well:

M S C

Then find the line beginning with "URL-Viewers", press C and change the
field to "/usr/bin/lynx _URL_"

I tried that and it didn't work.

When they ask you to name your URL viewer, do you just say LYNX?

Open a Terminal-Prompt an type:
which lynx<ENTER>

The system will probable answer with:
/usr/bin/lynx

Start (al)pine and go to M S C
Scroll down until the line beginning with URL-Viewers is highlighted.
Then press C. You'll see an editable line on the bottom, Change it to
Change field url-viewers list entry : "/usr/bin/lynx _URL_"

Don't forget the double quotes.
Then press <ENTER> and exit setup with E. (al)pine will ask you
Commit changes ("Yes" replaces settings, "No" abandons changes)?
Then press Y and you're done.
