Or use Perl. :-)

Dealing with MIME can be pretty daunting considering the complexity
offered by MIME in the constitution of the various body parts. By
"decrypting", do you think he meant "decoding"? I hope so. Decrypting
body parts can be a pain, too. S/MIME or PGP, for example?

No need for another SMTP server. Just fish the message out of the
mailbox's Inbox with POP3 (a Perl module). Then use the MIME-tools
Perl module to deconstruct the message into its hierarcy of body parts
(and use the LWP module, if it's in HTML, to get at the text), find
the ones you want and process them. Use FTP (another Perl module) to
send the files to the *nix machine (or SSH, but that's a bit more
complex -- also a Perl module). To send the messages from the *nix
machine, use telnet (another Perl module) and something as simple as
the "mail" command (depends on the e-mail system).

Or you can lock yourself in to another Microsoft-specific programming
language (powershell? C#?) and repeat the excercise (with some languae
more widely used) if you have to deal with some other e-mail system
later.
