Yup.  Or you could ask if anyone else has one they're willing to
donate.  You're welcome to mine if you want it.

Due to the anarchic nature of the people sending these things, no
automatic tool can sort them out without failures (false positive /
negative).  It's simpler and more effective to roll your own with
existing tools.
