Hi Eric, I would be more than happy to release the code now even though it is not entirely finished if you are interested. The parsing part is pretty good, and I am using it in a production project right now. I am not sure it will fit your bill though as I am using it on a mail server to do message list bounce processing. Although I write Java code for a living, I wanted to make it easy to modify this utility on a running server so I used an open source project I contribute to at Mynajs.org which is built on top of the Mozilla Rhino project. I use Mime4J, but my code is written in JavaScript.
I would be more than happy to release the code now if you are interested. Please let me know. Thanks!
