Hi furicle, It sounds like the best solution would be create a tiddler deserializer for the message/rfc822 format. A deserializer is a JavaScript function that generates tiddlers given a block of text and a MIME type. The message/rfc822 format can contain multiple blocks of content (eg, a message and the attached images) which would be converted into separate tiddlers.
