-@deftypefun int envelope_create (envelope_t *, void *);
+@deftypefun int envelope_date (envelope_t, char *, size_t, size_t *);
+
+Get the date that the message was delivered to the mailbox, in
+something close to ANSI ctime() format: Mon Jul 05 13:08:27 1999.

-@deftypefun void envelope_destroy (envelope_t *, void *);
+@deftypefun int envelope_sender (envelope_t, char *, size_t, size_t *);
+
+Get the address that this message was reportedly received from. This
+would be the "mail from" argument if the message was delivered
+or received via SMTP, for example.
