Jim's suggestion

is yet another reason to learn python.
Or learn ruby :)
require 'tmail'
message = TMail::Mail.load("/tmp/mime-email.txt")
message.attachments.size
# => 1
image = message.attachments.first
image.original_file
# => "IMG_0025.jpg"
image.size

It is a StringIO, so you have IO access to this "file" stored in memory.
You could do something like:
File.open("/tmp/my_image.jpg", "w") do |f|
f.write image.read
end
I believe the source is available through rubygems.
