That looks like it. There's nothing like that in the mbox file but I
just sent an invite from my Facebook page to myself at a different
address and the "reply to" address was the one attached to my page. So
I guess Facebook uses its own address for "from" and the user's
address for "reply to." Makes sense for them I guess. Annoys me.

thx
