Help me in receiving,validating emails and save them in local directory

hi,
I'm working on a project where I get mails from different customers, what I need to do is I need to check if it is genuine mail and if there is any attachment I need to validate them and extract the message and save in the local directory as a text file say and then I need to direct it to appropriate department. Everything is to be automated. Please let me know if this is possible and also could you please send me some useful links.

NAME
simplify - a script to simplify a MIME message SYNOPSIS
simplify [args ...] < message > othermessage DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the simplify command. simplify is a Perl script to simplify a MIME message. This script never loads the entire message into memory, but does dump it's entire contents to disk once. OPTIONS
mime=no Don't use MIME, no HTML mail allowed. testing=yes Run in testing mode (suppress randonmess) saveall=yes Save all attachments to files. temp=/path/to/working/dir/ Defaults to /tmp. url=http://box/path/ URL-prefix for printing paths to attachments header=text... Text preceding the attachment URL list. textsig=/path/to/file Text signature to append to text parts. htmlsig=/path/to/file HTML signature to append to HTML parts. If "saveall" is yes, then the script will save all attachments to disk so people can access their contents later. If an URL is specified then that automatically implies "saveall=yes". Without this, the default behavior is to only save text and html parts, and delete them and all working directories when the script is finished. SEE ALSO
