[Tutor] slightly updated version of same script

[Kirk Bailey]

Here ya go. Took out the extra crof and the testing code with the type
statement.

Now that I can get this working, I need to go play with DIGESTING
incoming email and examining header information. Good thing I trapped a
few incoming letters into files in the server so I have data to feed the
script for testing.

Any and all, feel free to examine this and comment on anything you like.
