12.7.1 Additional Methods of Message objects

The Message class defines the following methods in addition to the rfc822.Message methods:

getplist (): Return the parameter list of the content-type header. This is a list if strings. For parameters of the form "key=value", key is converted to lower case but value is not. For example, if the message contains the header "Content-type: text/html; spam=1; Spam=2; Spam" then getplist() will return the Python list ['spam=1', 'spam=2', 'Spam'].

getparam (name): Return the value of the first parameter (as returned by getplist() of the form "name=value" for the given name. If value is surrounded by quotes of the form `<...>' or `"..."', these are removed.

getencoding (): Return the encoding specified in the content-transfer-encodingmessage header. If no such header exists, return '7bit'. The encoding is converted to lower case.

gettype (): Return the message type (of the form "type/subtype") as specified in the content-type header. If no such header exists, return 'text/plain'. The type is converted to lower case.
