2b25 feedback: contrib/hypetombox.pl

I'm not sure if there's a more current version of the "hypermail archive to mbox" converter, but giving the one in the current package I whirl, I note that:

1. It does not work with an archive created by this version of hypermail;
2. It *does* work with our local v1.x Except, not surprisingly, it doesn't back out attachments. (That would be a heck of a trick, given that neither of the authors could know about the particulars of our implementation of that!)

So, I'm curious whether there *is* a current version of hypetombox.pl, or an equivalent program (that could be included in contrib/?). And whether it could be clever enough to put attachments back into an mbox. (That could get big and ugly, eh?)

Either way, the current hypetombox.pl maybe should be trimmed if no one's prepared to updated it.
