Basically, yes, as long as (in the set_payload() situation) you've got a text/plain message. Whether to use set_payload() or attach() depends on whether the container is multipart or not.
Ouch-I guess I missed this little detail. I'm trying to get an idea of how best to do this. Does this work? (easier in pcode than english):
if not msg.is_multipart and msg_type=="text/plain": bod=msg.get_payload() <do transform on bod> msg.set_payload(bod) elif msg.get_type() == 'multipart/mixed': for part in msg.walk() if part_type == "text/plain": bod=part.get_payload() <do transform on bod> part.set_payload(bod)
I've sort of cobbled this together on the fly here, so if it's totally off please forgive my ignorance, stupidity, lack of sleep, etc...

from email.Iterators import typed_subpart_iterator
...
def munge(msg): for part in typed_subpart_iterator(msg, 'text', 'plain'): body = part.get_payload() newbody = hack_body(body) part.set_payload(newbody)
