It's not as bad as all that - if you have the entire body handy, about the only
three things that you'd really need are the C-T-E from the main headers, the
main MIME type, and if it's a multipart/*, what the bodypart boundary string
is.  And your Perl script already does 2 of those.

Mind you, the hard part is writing the code to figure out what to *do* with
a multipart/alternative that's got a message/rfc822 as one of the parts,
yadda yadda yadda. ;)
