Currently modifying a MIME structure or individual parts is
not supported. The only thing coming close is to replace
entire mail, using an interface to an external program
such as altermime.
Amavisd does build a MIME structure tree by calling
MIME-Tools (resulting object from a MIME::Parser call
is stored into $msginfo->mime_entity), but further
decoding may replace individual parts stored on files
(in directory ./parts in a working directory), so the
$msginfo->mime_entity can not be used to always reconstruct
a mail message from its (possibly modified) parts.
MIMEDefang project does this, but the task is nontrivial.
Some of the steps have already been taken in 2.6.*, e.g.
adding an I/O interface for reading from a MIME::Entity
object. As a minimum, what is still needed is to change
the logic of decoding, and somehow preserve original MIME
parts on files without making them visible to virus scanners
when a part has been successfully decoded/decompressed.

Files are already stored in a directory:
$msginfo->mail_tempdir . '/parts'
> - Delete attached files
As noted, can't be done individually, the only way currently
is to replace an entire mail ('altermime'-like interface).
