I have zero experience, but Check[1] looks interesting.

Rather than de-glib-ify'ing GMime wouldn't it be better to find a non
glib-based library for MIME processing?  I do most of my development
in Python these days so I don't know of any examples.  My googling
turned up several C++ libraries or c-client and I wouldn't want to go
down either of those paths.
