Typo, I assume? ^^^
readlines() isn't really what you want here, anyway -- the envelope, in
particular, won't contain linefeeds. It's ASCII NUL terminated strings
in series.

What are you trying to do here? Add additional linefeeds to each line
in the message? That will mess the header up nicely -- only the first
line will remain in the header; the rest of it will be considered part
of the body due to the extra linefeed after the first line.

Then you try to open the whole mess of a string as a command. It
doesn't exist. I think you mean to open the command and then feed it
the message on stdin, but this is not the way to do it.

This will write the entire envelope out, plus an extra linefeed. As I
said, readlines() will treat the whole envelope as one 'line' with no
trailing linefeed.
What are you trying to do?
