I've looked into it a bit more, and I think I understand it a bit better.  It
looks like the field_list array in the header is meant to contain other
arbitrary message header data.  It looks like the 'type' property of each
object in field_list is a number, and the .data property is the information for
that field.  Is there any documentation that lists the field types in the
field_list and the numbers that they correspond to?  It looks like 162 is FTN
seen-by and 163 is FTN path, but I've also seen 176 for some messages, and I'm
not sure what that represents, or what other types might exist.
