I do:
# assume the script is named "myscript.py":
us = os.path.splitext(os.path.basename(sys.argv[0]))[0]
usdir = os.path.dirname(sys.argv[0])
import gettext
gettext.install(us, usdir)

Mine looks like:
./en_PL/LC_MESSAGES/myscript.mo

You need to set the "Content-Type: charset" and
"Content-Transfer-Encoding:". I use:
"Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8\n"
"Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit\n"
