Just outof cuirriosity, did you try setting "content" to the contents
you want in the message file? I claim that should work and will save a
step. 

This does create a branch in the path though the code which I guess
you don't want, but I think it will end up adding a journal entry for
the file that may/may not be important in your use case.
