Automated mail > file cat & decoding ?

We need a shell script, program, gizmo that reads a mail spool file, recognizes a  
series of uuencoded images (which are not necessarily in the right order), extracts  
them, cats them in the right order, strips headers and decodes. 

Tall order?

We're running the Internet anonymous ftp site for the NOA/NESDIS wxsat waffle server  
being run by the System Support Group. Images are fed over as mail. They're not  
always in the right order and other type of mail will be interspersed. It would of  
course, also be useful to have other, plain mail automatically saved too. Ideally,  
we're looking for a mail reading agent with an IQ high enough to see the difference  
between text and uuencoded binary and to know what to do with it. Ie. read, sort,  
convert and sluice it to the right directory of anonymous ftp account.

If anyone has any tips, scripts or code that they think might help, we'd be  
etarnally grateful.
