I tried ripmime, and it does extract the attachments but it throws away all
of the header information and gives me only the attachment by itself.

I'm trying to write or find a script that will extract attachments from
an email message and write them to a directory, where I could run
sa-learn on them. Right now, mail comes in through exim and our
users get their mail via pop3. I have got them all forwarding the
spam they get to a spam email account as attachments so that all the
headers will be kept intact. I thought extracting those attachments
would be fairly trivial to do but i'm having some problems with it. I
can't seem to find a script that actually suits my needs... and when I
tried to write my own I found that I really don't know how attachments
work all that well. It doesn't seem like it should be that difficult
but it's still giving me problems.
Does anybody know of a good script to use for this purpose or have any
pointers on how I could write a script that accomplishes this?
RipMime should work..
