Description
I found that for email messages with a number of base64-encoded text parts, the text parts are not decoded by mailhandler. Here's a patch that resolves the problem for me.
I have not yet tested this on a large number of e-mails. But if I find any problems with it I'll report back here.

#1
Can you suggest a way to test this?
#2
To test the bug you just need a message with multiple base64-encoded text parts. I can forward you such a message if you don't have any way to generate it and you give me an e-mail address.

Sure - I'd love to learn what the problem looks like. My address is zohar at linnovate dot net.
However - please feel free to commit any patch you judge adequate and ready. I hate being a bottleneck and I fully trust your judgment.
#4
We could really use a test suite for this module, complete with a set of sample messages. That would make me feel more confident about committing such a patch. I'm not sure how, when an IMAP server is needed for testing..
#5
FYI I just bounced a sample message to you, the original message structure should be intact (I used mutt, my favourite mail client ;)
#6
Patch looks fine to me. applied.
