Hello, I have snagged a mailbox file from another user, and I wish to extract an attachment contained within it.
The file has a long cryptic name, and I can see the headers, body and attachments within it: Content-Type: application/msword; name="interestingfile.doc" Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64 Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="interestingfile.doc" I have hunted everywhere for something to split and decode the attachment into a standalone file, but can find nothing. There is a package called maildir-utils in existence, but I don't know if it does what I want, and it's not in my distro's repository anyway (Mepis 8.0). Perhaps it is too simple to document? Yes I could chop the file at the boundaries of the attachment, but what tool to decode it? Even if it's simple, please put me out of my misery. Thanks, Andrew
