Gosh, Jordan, that's the most elaborate method I ever heard of. File pairs,
and all that -- the truth is, a mail message is always one single file, usually
a *.POP, and there's no need to convert it to anything else. Use Polarbar!
You can "examine" every file in its raw state, or de-Base64[MIME] in memory and
examine their so-called "attachments" (just parts of the one POP file,
actually) in their raw state, and immediately figure out what those attachments
are or aren't. Polarbar is free, it is the paragon of *user*-designed software
(i.e. every aspect of development is undertaken by users themselves, at user
suggestion, and with user collaboration), it works under *any* operating system
(because Java), and it will NEVER launch anything at all, dangerous or not,
unless you specifically give it the go-ahead. It is also, after five years of
constant elaboration, extremely powerful, configurable, and reliable. Join the
Polarbar mail list -- it will blow you away: www.polarbar.org. The very model
of software that serves US, not some company's principals & investors...

Are we talking here about a msg from "ralphgriswold" dating to last weekend?
(I've been travelling & out of the loop...)
