7090792Sgshapiro<td>
7190792Sgshapiro<ul><li>smfi_addheader does not change a message's existing headers.
7290792SgshapiroTo change a header's current value, use <a
7390792Sgshapirohref="smfi_chgheader.html">smfi_chgheader</a>.
7490792Sgshapiro    <li>A filter which calls smfi_addheader must have set the SMFIF_ADDHDRS flag in the smfiDesc_str passed to <a href="smfi_register.html">smfi_register</a>.
75132943Sgshapiro    <li>For smfi_addheader, filter order is important.  <b>Later filters will see the header changes made by earlier ones.</b>
7690792Sgshapiro    <li>Neither the name nor the value of the header is checked for
7790792Sgshapiro    standards compliance.  However, each line of the header must be under
7890792Sgshapiro    2048 characters and should be under 998 characters.  If longer headers
7998121Sgshapiro    are needed, make them multi-line.  To make a multi-line header, insert
8098121Sgshapiro    a line feed (ASCII 0x0a, or <tt>\n</tt> in C) followed by at least
8198121Sgshapiro    one whitespace character such as a space (ASCII 0x20) or tab (ASCII 0x09,
8298121Sgshapiro    or <tt>\t</tt> in C).  The line feed should NOT be preceded by a
8398121Sgshapiro    carriage return (ASCII 0x0d); the MTA will add this automatically.
8490792Sgshapiro    <b>It is the filter writer's responsibility to ensure that no standards
8590792Sgshapiro    are violated.</b>
