Since MH tools only pay attention to files matching /^\d+/,
it seems like breaking messages out into \d+.attachments would
make things easier to grep, etc. I suggested this before, but
having recently learned about hooks, this should be easy for
me to mock-up sometime this week
https://github.com/mcr/nmh/blob/master/docs/README-HOOKS

inc (add hook) will mhstore to \d.attachment
refile will rename and move as necessary
rmm will remove

everything else is transparent, although aliases could be made
for mhlist/mhshow, which use the pre-dumled attachments.
