Did 'fmttest' not help you here? Anyway, this sure seems to work for me:
% fmttest +inbox -message -format '%<{body}++%>' message-number
Prints "++" for a non-empty message, but nothing for an empty message.
Now if your message is not truely blank but has a space or newline or
two, you might need to add a %(trim) in there. E.g.:
%<(trim{body})++%>
If this isn't helpful, the -trace switch to fmttest might be useful.
