Ah perfect, thanks! I was not aware of a function like
camel_data_wrapper_write_to_stream().
Just for the records if someone else is looking for a similar solution:
CamelStreamMem *stream = (CamelStreamMem *)camel_stream_mem_new ();
camel_data_wrapper_write_to_stream ((CamelDataWrapper*)t->message,
(CamelStream *)stream);
And then you can access the message via
stream->buffer->data;
and
stream->buffer->len;
cheers,
Stefan
