Thanks, this is exactly what I needed. I guess I should have looked just
a little further than mimetools and I would have found it myself.

Just for interest sake, I'm using your extract_mime module to rip

useful piece of software.

The
question of the existence of views in the absence of anyone to hold them
is left as an exercise for the reader.  The question of the existence of
the reader is left as an exercise for the second god coefficient.  (A
