[issue2551000] MailGW currently broken for multipart messages (python2.7)

New submission from Ralf Schlatterbeck:

Tested with python2.7, not python3:

The mail parsing in mailgw.py in class RoundupMessage (which now
inherits from email.message.Message) relies on recursively parsing mails
using the method extract_content. After the unpacking step this fails
because get_payload returns a email.message.Message object, not a
RoundupMessage, so subsequent recursive calls fail because the object
has no extract_content method. The traceback (for an attachment of type
message/rfc822 but any multipart mail currently fails) is given below.

Looks like we currently don't have any multipart examples in the mail
gateway tests?
