What's the typical client reaction when they've done a FETCH ENVELOPE (for example) and receive a PARSE response code back. Do they usually FETCH the entire note and then attempt to deal with the note as best as possible themselves. Or what?

A major client treats the PARSE response as "babble" -- that is, something to put in the debug logs to help in identifying "why did this strange thing happen" but otherwise not something that is to be given to a user.


I certainly hope that a client would not ignore the envelope and fetch the entire message itself.
