Some stuff in the procmail package might interest you, like "formail".
This comes from its manpage:

       -d   Tell formail that the  messages  it  is  supposed  to
            split  need  not  be  in  strict mailbox format (i.e.
            allows you to split digests/articles or  non-standard
            mailbox  formats).   This disables recognition of the
            Content-Length: field.

So I guess it's supposed to be able to do the things you need to get done.
Never used it myself though.

Cheers,


Joost
