stripping email attachments ???



I have an automated phone system that sends an email to me when people
call.  When I get a voice message the email contains a realaudio (*.ra)
attachment; and when I get a fax the email contains a *.tiff attachment.

My email system uses fetchmail to retrieve emails from various sources,
processes them through procmail for delivery to appropriate directories,
and I use mutt for email reading and sending.

I want to be able to _strip_ a copy of these attachments and place the
attachments under a web server directory, where I can retrieve and
see/listen to them from just about any computer in front of which I find
myself ;>

Stripping the attachment is where I am stuck.  Once stripped, I want it
in native format (ra, tiff) instead of mime.  I am good with perl; so,
if the tools I'm already using (e.g., procmail) cannot do this alone, I
have options . . .

What do you think?
