OK, here's my current code. It's in two parts: mailheader.py contains
the Mail, MailHeader ands MailBody classes. (It uses rfc822 for
parsing right now, because I didn't want to reinvent that wheel
just yet). The other module is utility.py, which contains various
small utility functions I find useful, and is used by mailheader.py.

I've put it in MIME attachments.

Bear in mind that this is a work-in-progress. Ususal disclaimers
apply.
