We might already have some Python code that does this (albeit in a 
format quite different from Unix mailbox), based on message-IDs.
Do you think you may be interested in it?

I would strongly suggest that not being MIME-aware would strictly 
confine your work to proof-of-concept status. I.e., it would scarcely be 
useful in today's world. Even a simple HTML message would break it...
