The input file is a mime message serialized.

In output we have multiple files:
- an XML representation of the mime message
- a separate file for each decoded part.

I think there is nothing "creative" in this process. Btw thinking at
this a bit more I think we can simply keep using mime4j internal
generator for everything. Then we only have to run a one time check
using the perl tools to check that mime4j outputs and perl outputs are
the same.. this is only an automated alternative to "manually" review
expected results.

Either way we don't need that stuff in the repository at all.

I already removed most copyrighted stuff and I started creating some new
test messages.
