Once a message has been delivered it has no envelope, so fetchmail has to
re-invent the envelope rather than rewrite it.
According to RFC 5598, fetchmail is a Mediator. Unfortunately, that term
isn't widely used in such technical acceptation.
Right. But in more common parlance, it is much more like a mailing list than an
MTA. Perhaps a 're-mailer'.
