I have found out that the raw post data is stored there. Extracting file 
contents from that raw file is possible. However, the provisional 
email.contentmanager class does not provide methods for extracting 
streams from a mime message. Which is bad, because nobody wants to load 
a huge mime message into memory (for example, a DVD iso file...)
