> during the review of NIFI-1899 Dan Marshall highlighted some use cases for email processing that have not been addressed as part of the initial development cycle.
> One of these use cases was the decoding of Microsoft Transport Neutral Encoding Files (TNEF). 
> This type of attachments is popularly know as winmail.dat and uses a non RFC compliant structure to transfer attachments across different Microsoft Outlook clients.
> Given the prevalence of outlook and the issues with winmail.dat files, it would be nice to be able to decode TNEF as we currently do with MIME attachments.
