Short answer: No. The mail format is given by monit. Only content can be changed.
Long answer: Kind of... I had some different ideas on how to distribute messages based on their importance and was not able to find a solution that matched my needs (different message transfer for different priorities). So I came up with a drop-in-replacement for an SMTP server. This runs as a systemd-service on my machine and is able to act differently for each message (mostly . You can simple enhance it to do most likely everything you can manage to do with a bash env. ;) You'll find it on github.
