A small C/C++ application could do it pretty easily. Probably easier than trying to script it, though a Perl or Python script wouldn't be too bad either - probably easier than C. Basically:
1. Open mail file
2. for each unread message
2a. for each attachment found, read to end of attachment and pass to decoder if necessary, placing (decoded) attachment data in separate file as per attachment name.
3. Close mail file.
4. ExitSometimes, real fast is almost as good as real time.
Just remember, Semper Gumbi - always be flexible!
