This is not a problem. RFC2045 specifies that
"Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7BIT" should be assumed if the
Content-Transfer-Encoding header is not present. guile-email implements
this recommendation.

Your attachment is an mbox, not a raw email. Perhaps you are treating it
as a raw email and that's why you have to chop off the first line? And,
I'm guessing your other problems are also related to this.

The following snippet works for me. Could you confirm?

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(parse-email
 (first
  (call-with-input-file "/path/to/your/attachment"
    mbox->emails)))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
