[ale] Parsing attachments out of email



I tried some things out, and figured out that I can do this pretty simply by just 
replacing everything between the first "X-MimeOLE" header and the second one. Seems like 
something I ought to be able to do with sed or a short perl script. However, when piping 
stdin through grep or doing a pattern match in perl, it seems like it always matches line 
by line.

In this case, what I need is to do a search and replace pattern across the entire set of 
lines. I assume there must be some way to do this with a special command through sed or a 
special perl script, but it's beyond me knowledge of either. Anyone happen to know how i 
can do either?
