Pruning e-mail attachments.

Hello, all -- first and foremost, I'm pleased to announce the birth of
Isabella Francesca D'Ambrosio -- for those with places in their hearts
for baby pics, have at: http://flyingtoasters.net/gallery/album26?page=4
.  Now that the birth done with, I hope to be able to make impending
meetings again (what with all my new-found spare time </sarcasm>).

And now for the actual on-topic stuff: I've got a Blackberry user who
gets inbound e-mail bounced from time to time because of large
attachments.  Since I route all his e-mail both to his IMAP account and
the Blackberry, there's no reason I couldn't strip off the attachments
-- *IF* I knew what it was that designated the start of an attachment. 
Upon looking at the raw text of a message, I remain somewhat ignorant. 
While I'm somewhat tempted to delve into the RFC's, if there's a
quick-n-dirty way to find out where to start stripping off text, I'd
appreciate being told about it.

Thanks!

-Ken
