[Rails] Accessing just the body of email in text format?

[softwareengineer 99]

I have gotten to the part where I can access the body of the email with
  
  # email.body
  
  after passing it to my receiver function using
  
  body = imap.fetch(message_id, ["BODY[]"])[0].attr['BODY[]']
  
  The problem now is that I get both a text version of the email as well as the HTML version of the email.
  
  How can I just get the text version of the email.
  
  Thanks

  So far I have tried the following
  
      #body = imap.fetch(message_id, "BODY[TEXT]")
      #body = imap.fetch(message_id, ["BODY[]"])[0].attr['BODY[]']
  
  
  But both of the above give me body text + the headers including  Content-Type etc. How can I access just the body in text format.
  
  I appreciate your assistance.
  
  
  Thanks
