I am in the exact same situation. I am receiving more and more mail with
a 1 line body like "cf attachment", and the real content in a word
document attached. Therefore I would love to have some generic tools to
manipulate mail contents. In this case, I would replace the whole mime
part by the output of 'catdoc' of 'pdftotext' and save the mail in this
form.

At least a way to blank the mime part would be nice.
