71168515Sgshapiro<TD>
72168515Sgshapiro<UL><LI>smfi_addheader does not change a message's existing headers.
73168515SgshapiroTo change a header's current value, use
74168515Sgshapiro<A HREF="smfi_chgheader.html">smfi_chgheader</A>.
75168515Sgshapiro    <LI>A filter which calls smfi_addheader must have set the SMFIF_ADDHDRS
76168515Sgshapiro	flag in the smfiDesc_str passed to
77168515Sgshapiro	<A href="smfi_register.html">smfi_register</A>.
78168515Sgshapiro    <LI>For smfi_addheader, filter order is important.
79168515Sgshapiro	<B>Later filters will see the header changes made by earlier ones.</B>
80168515Sgshapiro    <LI>Neither the name nor the value of the header is checked for
81168515Sgshapiro    standards compliance.
82168515Sgshapiro    However, each line of the header must be under 2048 characters
83168515Sgshapiro    and should be under 998 characters.
84168515Sgshapiro    If longer headers are needed, make them multi-line.
85168515Sgshapiro    To make a multi-line header,
86168515Sgshapiro    insert a line feed (ASCII 0x0a, or <TT>\n</TT> in C)
87168515Sgshapiro    followed by at least one whitespace character
88168515Sgshapiro    such as a space (ASCII 0x20) or tab (ASCII 0x09, or <TT>\t</TT> in C).
89168515Sgshapiro    The line feed should NOT be preceded by a carriage return (ASCII 0x0d);
90168515Sgshapiro    the MTA will add this automatically.
91168515Sgshapiro    <B>It is the filter writer's responsibility to ensure that no standards
92168515Sgshapiro    are violated.</B>
93168515Sgshapiro    <LI>The MTA adds a leading space to an added header value.
