I have a program called "uudeview" that automatically decodes MIME and
UUEncoded images in my slrnpull spool, and I have a script that runs
after my nightly cron job to decode the day's new images:
---------------------------------
#!/bin/sh
echo Decoding new images.
ls >newrun
diff newrun prevrun \
| perl -ne "print if s/< (\\d+)/\\1/;" \
| xargs /usr/local/bin/uudeview -ifs -p decoded
rm prevrun
mv newrun prevrun
cd decoded
chmod 644 *
---------------------------------
Then I just use whatever tools I have to browse the images in decoded
and move them to another directory when I'm done. Here's what the
output from uudeview looks like for a sample post from a few days ago:
Note: No encoded data found in 34422

I'm not familiar with ImageMagick, but if it takes multiple images on the
command line, you could use uudeview to decode in a temp directory, then use
ls and xargs to start ImageMagick, then remove the temp directory when done.
Search freshmeat if you want uudeview.
