Ah, true. Perhaps in those cases, before reading the remaining
parts from the network, it would read in the existing bits? (Or
just do the check afterwards as it does now.)

I suppose that could lead to inefficiences if, say, it's getting a
1GB packet slowly and gets interrupted a bunch of times, but would
probably help in the general case?

Hmm. mu4e usually does the right thing, but in this case a basic
reply is sending it to you personally, and a "reply all" is
including you and the list on the reply. I will try to remember
to manually munge the headers on future replies. Sorry about
that.
