Doesn't yarn call an external program (metamail) to handle MIME?
I believe that *nix mailreaders such as elm and mutt also use
metamail for MIME.

I don't have the docs handy, but I think you should be able to
do what you want with metamail (or perhaps even mpack).
D:\>metamail --help
Usage: metamail [-b] [-B] [-d] [-e] [-h] [-r] [-R] [-p] [-P]
[-x] [-y] [-z] [-c content-type] [-E content-transfer-encoding]
[-f from-name] [-m mailername] [-s subject] [message-file-name]
