Auto email attachment saver in linux

Hai,

I am using Fedora Core 6. I need to automatically save the attachments
and message text to a common directory of my incoming emails. Is
there any command line tool or program available in Linux to do the
particular job. Can anybody help me?

Place a .forward file (note the dot) in your home directory with the
contents:

\youruserid
file.foo

Each new message will be appended to file. The \userid line is
required so that
a copy is available to your mail user agent too. Depending on your
mailer, it
should be possible to look for individual message in file.foo. Now if
you want the attachments
separated into individual files, that requires something more.
