The simple answer is that you place the message into a mailbox (using
mail_append()), do mail_open(), and then use the various mail_fetch*()
functions.
The slightly more complex answer is that if you really want a string or a
file that isn't a mailbox, you should write a simple driver that opens a
single-message mailbox from a file or a string.
Direct calls to rfc822_parse_msg() are NOT advisable. Not even drivers
make direct calls to the parsing routines any more. The mail_*()
abstraction exists for a reason; they provide a safe and supported
interface that won't change in the future in subtle ways that will break
your application.
It is also FAR more simple to do as I suggest than to call the parsing
routines directly. If you're still determined, then look at how
mail_fetch_structure() works in mail.c to learn the needed secrets. And
be aware that this may change in the future, and thus you'll have to re-do
the exercise each time a new version of c-client comes out.
Good luck....
