Well if that's what it does, there is no control of just getting the
headers anymore with the apple mail software (osx or ios) for IMAP accounts.

I think at one time there used to be "Download headers only" as an option,
but it may of been something else like Thunderbird or Eudora.

So I guess at this point the whole idea of headers separate from the body is
a dead issue with osx/ios.
