I apologize.  "Bottom line" was meant to be synonymous with "In summery"
I am going to assume that you want to see a couple of examples. I'm 
attaching directory listings for three different emails that are all
delivered to the same Maildir.  I'm using the courier suite and maildrop
for delivery so, YMMV, but worse case, it should give you an idea.  There
is probably a better way of doing it but this works for me.
