Have you read the supporting documentation for the class you're using? perldoc MIME::Parser: Before reading further, you should see MIME::Tools to make sure that you understand where this module fits into the grand scheme of things. doing what it says, we go to perldoc MIME::Tools: Parsing messages You usually start by creating an instance of MIME::Parser and setting up certain parsing parameters: what directory to save extracted files to, how to name the files, etc. You then give that instance a readable filehandle on which waits a MIME message. If all goes well, you will get back a MIME::Entity object (a subclass of Mail::Internet), which consists of... o A MIME::Head (a subclass of Mail::Header) which holds the MIME header data. I will leave the following the remainder of the documentation trail as an exercise to the reader. *After* you've read all the appropriate documentation, if you don't understand some of it or your code doesn't do what you think it should based on the documentation, *then* you should post again asking for help.
