Not to my knowledge, but a script that would use MIME::Tools (specifically, MIME::Parser) to parse an inbound "message", figure out if it's a multipart/alternative message, and drop the HTML component or return the text component, save attachments, whatever, probably wouldn't be all that hard to write.
Perl has the modules to do MIME processing. The hard part would be writing the application and getting the features implemented.
If you're looking to write one of these, note that there are already a billion e-mail clients out there, many done as a "this is my first real program" type of experiments/projects. If that's the direction you're going in, go for it.
These modules seem to be more useful (to me at least) in doing automatic processing of incoming mail, for example, stripping out (or scanning, whatever), say, HTML components to messages, or certain types of file attachments, etc. | [reply] |
CSCMail runs on Unix, uses GTK, and is written in Perl.
I haven't tried it, but it does have MIME support and can use a DBI-capable database for storage. | [reply] |
Have a look at CyberSpace Cowboy Mail. It is written in Perl using the GTK toolkit and the gnome-perl bindings. Kind of cool, /me thinks...

My reply has little to do with perl, but it sounds
like perhaps you are looking for a nice text-mode
email client that is MIME aware.
You may like mutt.
It isn't done in perl, doesn't have a perl interface,
but AFAIK, it does most of what you are asking.
