Sorry about that, the method should read:

(defmethod part-body-stream ((part part))
  "Skip headers to beginning of part body and return stream"
  (let* ((message (loop for parent = (parent part) then (parent parent)
                     until (typep parent 'message)
                     finally (return parent)))
         (stream (message-body-stream message))
         (boundary (boundary-tag (parent part))))
      (dotimes (number (part-number part))
        (scan-forward-boundary-tag stream boundary))
      (read-rfc2822-header stream)
      stream))

My best,

Fred
