What is the reason for inheriting from a base class?  Would it not be easier if these were POJOs?

I think it would be better to use a named location within the message body for both parts and allow the names to be configurable.  This would then be consistent with the way we are handling similar tasks within the current codebase, for example the integration with jBPM/drools maps these named locations into/out of their variable scopes.

This sounds like a good idea.
