These are the locations I found.

src/compose.m
1488:base64_command = command_prefix(shell_quoted("base64"), quote_once).

src/detect_mime_type.m
55:file_command = command_prefix(shell_quoted("file"), quote_once).

src/prog_config.m

:- func default_notmuch_command = command_prefix.

default_notmuch_command =
    command_prefix(shell_quoted("notmuch"), quote_once).

default_editor_command =
    command_prefix(shell_quoted("vi"), quote_once).

:- func default_html_dump_command = command_prefix.

default_html_dump_command = command_prefix(shell_quoted(Lynx), quote_once) :-
    Lynx = "lynx -dump -force-html -stdin -display-charset=utf-8".

default_open_part_command = "xdg-open&".

default_pipe_id_command = "xclip".

default_alt_html_filter_command =
    command_prefix(shell_quoted("pandoc -f markdown -t html"), quote_once).

:- func default_poll_period_secs = maybe(int).

default_poll_period_secs = yes(60).

:- func default_auto_refresh_inactive_secs = maybe(int).

default_auto_refresh_inactive_secs = no.

default_sendmail_command =
    command_prefix(shell_quoted("/usr/bin/sendmail -oi -oem"), quote_once).

Hope that helps,
