I use MIME::Parser, and have always loved it. It will extract
attachments to files, and you can do what you want with them.
For example:
use MIME::Parser;
my $message = <however you are getting the raw message>;
$parser->output_dir('/some/directory');
my $entity = $parser->parse_data(\$message);
At this point, attachments should have been parsed out and created in
$INCOMING_DIR. Use $entity to fondle the rest of the message as you
want. Much more info in the docs.
Cheers,
Kevin
