it works on messages where the body is encoded also.

thanks, my script is working very well for me, but it isn't for everyone,
because it can't be used with -p .

in at least one case it caused a message to be mis-classified that would
actually have been classified correctly without it.  a base64-encoded
message that would have been classified as spam based on the headers
was classified as "not spam" because of more interesting non-spam
words that were decoded in the body.  :-(  but that doesn't happen very
often.

i've commited the files to cvs.  feedback is welcome.
