Bug 2181 is marked closed, but last comment indicates it should be re-opened (sorry, I'm not the opener of 2181).  This would be what $struct->type would normally be used for:

    $types = array(
      0 => "TEXT",
      1 => "MULTIPART",  
      2 => "MESSAGE",
      3 => "APPLICATION",
      4 => "AUDIO",
      5 => "IMAGE",
      6 => "VIDEO",
      7 => "OTHER"
    );
    if($struct->type) {
      $type = $types[$struct->type];
    } else {
      $type = "UNKNOWN";
    }

$struct->type will always evaluate as false, but you can see from serializing the struct object that the type isn't being set at all.  This probably should be fixed either way.

On the other hand, can we always assume that if $struct->type is false/null/whatever, it is a text part?

Thank you for taking the time to report a problem with PHP.
Unfortunately your version of PHP is too old -- the problem
might already be fixed. Please download a new PHP
version from http://www.php.net/downloads.php

If you are able to reproduce the bug with one of the latest
versions of PHP, please change the PHP version on this bug report
to the version you tested and change the status back to "Open".
Again, thank you for your continued support of PHP.

This is still an issue.

The last comment on 2181 indicated that it's fixed.
I verified that it works.

Consider the following part of var_dump output on an object that contained text/plain part:

[snip]
      ["parts"]=>
      array(2) {
        [0]=>
        object(stdClass)(12) {
          ["type"]=>
          int(0)
          ["encoding"]=>
          int(4)
          ["ifsubtype"]=>
          int(1)
          ["subtype"]=>
          string(5) "PLAIN"
          ["ifdescription"]=>
[snip]


Notice the int(0) for type.
Please, note that types > 7 will result in undefined value. 

If you have further questions, please send me a copy of MIME header of the email part in question (or, better, the whole message if it's not a secret) and re-open this bug.
