Good to hear :)

Good to hear also.  Good idea about the messages.  I've added
them to mine also - don't know why I didn't do it sooner.  Oh
yeah, I'm an idiot.

Thanks for that. I've saved it in my $PATH, 
/usr/local/bin/unmime.py, made it executable, but how do you
invoke it?  I assumed similar to the perl script, so change this
line in demime.sl:

#v+
fp = popen ("/usr/local/bin/demime --quiet - < "+demime_tmp, "r");
#v-

to:

#v+
fp = popen ("/usr/local/bin/unmime.py - < "+demime_tmp, "r");
#v-

Or do you have your own macro wrapper?

Worked well for the couple of signed and html multipart (html
only untested) messages I checked.

Mind if I put it on my website - credits to you - as an
alternative for demime?  Anything you want me to say on there?
