/bin/cat is the minimal starting point. Are you looking for the content
filter to do something specific?

        - It may need a MIME parser.

        - It may need to parse RFC822 addresses in headers

        - It may need a policy database

        - It may need archive decoding modules

        - It may a virus signature database

        - ...

Find the most similar open source filter and start there.
