Last night an active, knowledgeable working in the Internet protocol 
applications space said that he knew about RFC 2822 but not RFC 822...

But that can't be right - I'm only seven-and-twenty, and even *I* know about 
RFC 822 ...

Oh, go on.  It's good news indeed.  I only learned of RFC 822 from word of 
mouth, from a mail server's documentation and of course by reference to the 
popular format, whenever somebody wanted to pick nits.
