And I need to apologize. I responded to you with information about how
to download and launch the link; you asked how to save the link. Within
w3m (outside emacs), you should be able to do that by pressing
lower-case 'a' while on the link. If that doesn't work, then find your
custom key-binding by looking at the results of:

  grep SAVE_LINK ~/.w3m/keymap

Within emacs, have you been pressing <return> on the link, or have you
been running w3m-download-this-url (directly or by keybinding)? The
latter should not need any reference to any mailcap file.

As for the contents of your ~/.w3m/mailcap file, that should be a
separate issue. I have no idea how/what/when it gets modified or updated
- mine has a 'last modified' timestamp of year 2016... Here are some
relevant lines. They presume that you want to immediately  launch the downloaded
files using the mpv program located at /usr/bin/mpv. YMMV.

audio/mp1; /usr/bin/mpv --no-terminal --force-window -- %s; test=test -n "$DISPLAY"
audio/x-mp1; /usr/bin/mpv --no-terminal --force-window -- %s; test=test -n "$DISPLAY"
