Kinda, sorta, yes, no, maybe.

I'd have to compare the two formats to be able to say more definitively, 
or with any certainty.  But, ya, that's the /type/ of difference that 
I'm thinking of.

Aside:  What /actually/ is the body vs envelope?  In SMTP it's simple, 
it, everything between the DATA and the trailing <CR><LF>.<CR><LF> is 
the body the MAIL FROM: and RCPT TO(s) are envelope.  But RFC 822 
messages on disk, that's a bit of a horse of a different color.  It's 
easy to differentiate body from headers, but envelope???
