It isn't really important in this case, but 'msg' is a
Mailman.Message.Message instance. Mailman.Message.Message is a subclass
of email.message.Message, but it mostly just adds a few methods. It
doesn't change the behavior of any methods documented at
<https://docs.python.org/2/library/email.html>.
You can use code like the above to manipulate the sub-part headers, but

if you wish to remove the subpart all together you can just 'del' it and
use methods documented at
<https://docs.python.org/2/library/email.mime.html> to create new
sub-parts and use the Message.attach() method to attach them.

Yes. This will change in the future, but the preferred method is to
create a bzr branch containing your change, register at launchpad and
then push your branch to <https://code.launchpad.net/mailman>.
But whatever you do, post a note here so we know.
