Yep, I know that :)  My mail was sent fairly late, so I didn't explain very
well.

I can manage all of that.  What I need to know is in what format your Ham
and Spam directories are.  Currently mine are in plain-text.  A quick look
at the code showed that these were *not* expected to be a dump of a mime
message, but instead a simple "word stream" - which didn't seem to fit with
the binary data inside attachments.  I was guessing they had already been
processed to some degree, but gave up before digging deeper.

hrm - so maybe they *are* just the complete dump of the message including
the encoded image data and mime boundaries etc - I'll play a little more and
look inside splitndirs.
