Hi,

I don't know if this has a security impact, but I guess it could since
emails are come by their very nature from the network.

mimedecode segfaults on invalid input:

------------------------------------------------------------
$ echo -n '(' |mimedecode
Segmentation fault
------------------------------------------------------------
