as I wrote in an earlier mail in this thread:

Envelope could be fixed by using the header tables, but both can be
fixed by pre-caching the envelope and bodystructure responses like we do
already for the headers. Both are so common, and so expensive that it
makes a lot of sense. However, doing that while the fetch code is being
rebuild seems rather premature.
