Oops, the code above had 'elseif' instead of 'elsif', otherwise it would run. Everything works except the code that is supposed to determine the type of attachment.

The code was supposed to this.

foreach my $embeddedDoc ( $DocumentBody->{EmbeddedObjects} ) {
        my $edocType =$embeddedDoc->{Type};
        if ( $edocType eq 'EMBED_ATTACHMENT' ) {
            print "Embedded Attachment!\n"; 
        } elsif ( $edocType eq 'RICH_TEXT' ) {
            print "Some sort of Rich Document\n";
        } else { 
            print "Unknown Attachment! [ $edocType ] \n"; 
        }
        
    }
