| I asked this question a few weeks ago, but didn't get
| any response - probably, I send it to the wrong address :-)
Perhaps wrong address...
| my attachments in an email automaticly to a special directory.
| Independent, what kind of attachment it is, mime, or uuencode,
| it should unpack the data and save it in one global directory.
Point one: if you receive lot of attachements
I wouldn't do this. Intead use better Mail Agent that can understand
MIME. It's too heavy and time consuming to handle each mail when it
arrives and pipe it throught some MIME unpacker.
Point two: if you only rarely receive attachements: (X-info/pm-tips.txt)
13.1 Software to deal with mime or html
See also nearest Perl CPAN module, http://www.perl.org, site and
CPAN/modules/by-module/MIME/MIME-tools-4.112.tar.gz
There also exists Unix binary `munpack' to explode mime message
to separate files.
[MIME aware mail agents in Unix]
See `mutt' that could handle HTML mail. (Pointer to Mutt were
mentioned previously)
All Emacs Mail agents can handle MIME if you install some of the
mime handling packages: TM, SEMI, rmime.el. See
