Ah - nice! Also nice to see the recursive g_mime_multipart_foreach :-) 

Couple of small things (based on SVN HEAD). 

* some compiler warnings on amd64/gcc4.3; seems rather harmless,
  shouldn't stop the release I suppose.

* on my ubuntu/intrepid, the autogen.sh only works after:

	case $libtool_version in
-	    1.4*|1.5*)
+	    1.4*|1.5*|2.2*)

* it seems gmime does not like the header encodings that Gmail produces
  for 8859-1 special characters; ie. things like:

     From: =?ISO-8859-1?Q?Nordl=F6w_ <per nordlow example com>
 
  I guess g_mime_message_get_sender should turn that into UTF8 or
  something? Instead I get: 
  	     "=?ISO-8859-1?Q?Nordl=F6w_" <per nordlow example com>
   
  this happens even when compiling with -enable-rfc2047-workarounds

* finally, i noticed that test-parser gives some GLib warnings due to
  g_object_unref on some none-GObjects.

Best wishes,
Dirk.
