On a side note and out of laziness (I know RTFM)....
Does MIME::Parser handle recursive attachments?? We attempted to home
grow a parser a couple of years ago (I realize a lot has changed since
then) but were always trapped by multiple attachments inside an
attachment, etc. which for whatever reason we never could get to work. I
suppose you could use a regular recursive call to the standard
MIME::Parser methods, but I was just curious if it handled this on its own?
