I have a forum section that displays emails from a mailing list.
The script fails to properly work with an emailer that uses PGP signature.asc.
I suspected that that was the problem and I requested an email from someone else who uses PGP too. That email ran just fine.

That email was application/pgp
The problem email has another set of boundaries inside of a multipart/mixed section.

The email gets stripped of all content except last section that mailing list software adds on.

I get nothing section, then

--------------------------
blah blah mailing list
yakety-yak.html

The script uses MIME::parser
I got a copy of demime, get same result

Will post copy of not working and working email sources shortly

Sorry took me so long, but discovered 2 more emailers that failed also. They were failing with MIME::parser but run through demime perfectly. All are mixes of multipart/mixed and multipart/alternative.

But the following message source fails both:

Yes it is the webapps-experimental overlay I am working on a how to in this=
=20
portion of that thread:
[URL unfurl="true"]http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-p-4568135.html#4568135[/URL]
G-cpan needs to be the first overlay in /etc/make.conf  like:
PORTDIR_OVERLAY=3D"/usr/local/portage/ /usr/portage/local/layman"=20
My g-cpan is in /usr/local/portage/perl-gcpan or something like that.
layman installs in /usr/local/layman.

Any ideas on why this fails? Is there another parser that will work better? I was going to add demime in front of MIME::parser, but it seems that will help, but not solve all problems.
