Not at the moment.  You can check the defects attribute afterward to
see if there were any detected errors, though.

In email6 (planned for python 3.3) we will be providing a facility for
doing the raise immediately.  I don't know what you mean by leave
the message unmodified, though, since the input string is already
unmodified, and you won't get a message object when an error is raised.
