MH-E's  K-a (save all mime parts) command is really a usefull one.  
It can save a lot of time.  Sometime you just want to save all files for now 
and maybe look at them later.

I have run into a problem however. I didn't have any problems with all ascii 
filesnames with no spaces in them.  (Still didn't test any with spaces.)

I did some testing showing what happens in various situations, i.e., using 
MH-E, gmail, and Becky (a mua) and compared the results.

Looks like two problems which confounds the issue.  
  (1) One is that using 
                  filename*=   
        (filename with an * appended causes output to not use the given 
filename.

  (2) When filename=".......japanese characters in it like ..." (double quoates)
            filename="=?ISO-2022-JP........  "
          is used the name isn't converted back to a natual iso-2022 string, 
before
          creating and writing the file.


Please see the inlined test data file below.  In the test data the MH-E, ';' 
command was used to see the mime part headers.

Please take a look at these and give me some opinions and ideas on how to solve 
this.  Becuase I really like the K-a command.     

Note, that K-o or output of a single mimi part works fine.  But, its takes time
          to jump between mime parts and K-o for each one if there are a lot 
      of them or you're in a hurry.

With Japanese characters in the filename:
    MH-E with Mailutils MH uses:

        filename*=
    * and no double quotes, ".


Without Japanese characters in the filenames:
    MH-E with Mailutils MH uses:

    filename=
        * and no double quotes, ".


With Japanese characters in the filename 
        GMAIL mail used:
        filename=

With Japanese characters in the filename 
        X-Mailer:Becky! v7.04
        filename=

Note: I didn't test filenames with spaces in them.
      I don't like them but they exist.
