separate MIME parsing

[C. Fischer]

i would like to compare "bogofilter" to "ifile".  the latter doesn't have MIME
parsing.  the customary MIME parsers available for scripting do not easily fit
into an environment where the actual results aren't needed and wouldn't need
to get saved somewhere.

could "bogofilter"s MIME parsing be split out into a separate library for a
task like "just get the text portion as a token stream"?

which packages would you recommend?  the ones i looked at, eg. "reformime"
from "maildrop" or "munpack", all want to save to files instead of letting me
select text/* parts to output on stdout.
