Metamail is a system for handling multimedia mail.

A buffer overflow bug was found in the way Metamail processes certain
mail messages. An attacker could create a carefully-crafted message
such that when it is opened by a victim and parsed through Metamail,
it runs arbitrary code as the victim. The Common Vulnerabilities and
