Detecting rfc822 (email) messages

Hi,

I've got to index and sort files where many are in .eml format (message/rfc822). Apache Tika detects them as plain/text.

I was thinking to hack my application to add a check when I receive the mimetype plain/text file from Tika, but maybe I should try to write my own parser (this could be great to add support for indexing emails attachments). Any pointers?
