Although it's true you may not know what the file names are until MIME::Parser is done, you do have the option of specifying where to store the attachments beforehand: 
use strict;
use warnings;
use MIME::Parser;

  my $dir = "./mimemail";
  my $parser = new MIME::Parser;
  $parser->output_dir($dir);
  my $entity = $parser->read(\*STDIN) || die "couldn't parse MIME stre
+am";

You should have enough information at this point to change permissions on the directory or the files within it. Then again, maybe I misunderstand your question. The suggestion by davis should work in any case.
