Uh... your code will not fully process a deeply-nested MIME entity.  MIME
can be nested to an arbitrary depth, so you need a recursive function
to fully process all the parts.  For example, you can have a MIME
entity that looks like this:

multipart/alternative
    text/plain
    multipart/mixed
        text/html
        image/png

Your filter will not process the inner text/html part.

Regards,

Dianne.
