Network Working Group J. Palme Request for Comments: 2076 Stockholm University/KTH Category: Informational February 1997 Common Internet Message Headers Status of this Memo This memo provides information for the Internet community. This memo does not specify an Internet standard of any kind. Distribution of this memo is unlimited. Abstract This memo contains a table of commonly occurring headers in headings of e-mail messages. The document compiles information from other RFCs such as RFC 822, RFC 1036, RFC 1123, RFC 1327, RFC 1496, RFC 1521, RFC 1766, RFC 1806, RFC 1864 and RFC 1911. A few commonly occurring headers which are not defined in RFCs are also included. For each header, the memo gives a short description and a reference to the RFC in which the header is defined.

Introduction Many different Internet standards and RFCs define headers which may occur on Internet Mail Messages and Usenet News Articles. The intention of this document is to list all such headers in one document as an aid to people developing message systems or interested in Internet Mail standards. The document contains all headers which the author has found in the following Internet standards: , RFC 822 [2], RFC 1036 [3], RFC 1123 [5], RFC 1327 [7], RFC 1496 [8], RFC 1521 [11], RFC 1766 [12], RFC 1806 [14], RFC 1864[17] and RFC 1911[20]. Note in particular that heading attributes defined in PEM (RFC 1421-1424) and MOSS (RFC 1848 [16]) are not included. PEM and MOSS headers only appear inside the body of a message, and thus are not headers in the RFC 822 sense. Mail attributes in envelopes, i.e. attributes controlling the message transport mechanism between mail and news servers, are not included. This means that attributes from SMTP [1], UUCP [18] and NNTP [15] are mainly not covered either. Headings used only in HTTP [19] are not included yet, but may be included in future version of this memo. A few additional headers which often can be found in e-mail headings but are not part of any Internet standard are also included. For each header, the document gives a short description and a reference to the Internet standard or RFC, in which they are defined. The header names given here are spelled the same way as when they are actually used. This is usually American but sometimes English spelling. One header in particular, "Organisation/Organization", occurs in e-mail headers sometimes with the English and other times with the American spelling. The following words are used in this memo with the meaning specified below: heading Formatted text at the top of a message, ended by a blank line header = heading One field in the heading, beginning with a field field name, colon, and followed by the field value(s) Palme Informational [Page 2] RFC 2076 Internet Message Headers February 1997 It is my intention to continue updating this document after its publication as an RFC. The latest version, which may be more up-to- date (but also less fully checked out) will be kept available for downloading from URL http://www.dsv.su.se/~jpalme/ietf-mail-attributes.pdf. Please e-mail me (Jacob Palme) if you have noted headers which should be included in this memo but are not. 2. Use of gatewaying headers RFC 1327 defines a number of new headers in Internet mail, which are defined to map headers which X.400 has but which were previously not standardized in Internet mail. The fact that a header occurs in RFC 1327 indicates that it is recommended for use in gatewaying messages between X.400 and Internet mail, but does not mean that the header is recommended for messages wholly within Internet mail. Some of these headers may eventually see widespread implementation and use in Internet mail, but at the time of this writing (1996) they are not widely implemented or used. Headers defined only in RFC 1036 for use in Usenet News sometimes appear in mail messages, either because the messages have been gatewayed from Usenet News to e-mail, or because the messages were written in combined clients supporting both e-mail and Usenet News in the same client. These headers are not standardized for use in Internet e-mail and should be handled with caution by e-mail agents. 3. Table of headers 3.1 Phrases used in the tables "not for general Used to mark headers which are defined in RFC usage" 1327 for use in messages from or to Internet mail/X.400 gateways. These headers have not been standardized for general usage in the exchange of messages between Internet mail- based systems. Palme Informational [Page 3] RFC 2076 Internet Message Headers February 1997 "not standardized Used to mark headers defined only in RFC 1036 for use in e-mail" for use in Usenet News. These headers have no standard meaning when appearing in e-mail, some of them may even be used in different ways by different software. When appearing in e-mail, they should be handled with caution. Note that RFC 1036, although generally used as a de-facto standard for Usenet News, is not an official IETF standard or even on the IETF standards track. "non-standard" This header is not specified in any of referenced RFCs which define Internet protocols, including Internet Standards, draft standards or proposed standards. The header appears here because it often appears in e- mail or Usenet News. Usage of these headers is not in general recommended. Some header proposed in ongoing IETF standards development work, but not yet accepted, are also marked in this way. "discouraged" This header, which is non-standard, is known to create problems and should not be generated. Handling of such headers in incoming mail should be done with great caution. "controversial" The meaning and usage of this header is controversial, i.e. different implementors have chosen to implement the header in different ways. Because of this, such headers should be handled with caution and understanding of the different possible interpretations. "experimental" This header is used for newly defined headers, which are to be tried out before entering the IETF standards track. These should only be used if both communicating parties agree on using them. In practice, some experimental protocols become de-facto-standards before they are made into IETF standards.

RFC 1123: 5.2.15- 16, 5.3.7, Note difference from the "From " RFC 1036 2.1.1 header (not followed by ":") below. (1) This header should never From not standardized appear in e-mail being sent, and for use in e-mail should thus not appear in this memo. It is however included, since people often ask about it. Palme Informational [Page 6] RFC 2076 Internet Message Headers February 1997 This header is used in the so- called Unix mailbox format, also known as Berkely mailbox format or the MBOX format. This is a format for storing a set of messages in a file. A line beginning with "From " is used to separate successive messages in such files. This header will thus appear when you use a text editor to look at a file in the Unix mailbox format. Some mailers also use this format when printing messages on paper. The information in this header should NOT be used to find an address to which replies to a message are to be sent. (2) Used in Usenet News mail From RFC 976: 2.4 for transport, to indicate the path or use in Usenet News through which an article has gone >From when transferred to a new host. Sometimes called "From_" header.

Unfortunately, the header can appear in e-mail with two different and contradictory meanings: (a) Indicating the newsgroup recipient of an article/message sent to both e-mail and Usenet News recipients. (b) In a personally addressed reply to an article in a news- group, indicating the newsgroup in which this discussion originated.

This behavior is not quite proper, MTAs should not modify headings (except inserting Received lines), and it can in some cases cause Bcc recipients to be wrongly divulged to non-Bcc recipients.

Unfortunately, this is controversial. ambiguous, since there are different kinds of replies, which the sender may wish to go to different addresses. In particular, there are personal replies intended for only one person, and group replies, intended for the whole group of people who read the replied-to message (often a mailing list, anewsgroup name cannot appear here because of different syntax, see "Followup-To" below.). Palme Informational [Page 9] RFC 2076 Internet Message Headers February 1997 Some mail systems use this header to indicate a better form of the e-mail address of the sender. Some mailing list expanders puts the name of the list in this header. These practices are controversial. The personal opinion of the author of this RFC is that this header should be avoided except in special cases, but this is a personal opinion not shared by all specialists in the area. Used in Usenet News to indicate Followup-To: RFC 1036: 2.2.3, that future discussions (=follow- not standardized up) on an article should go to a for use in e-mail. different set of newsgroups than the replied-to article. The most common usage is when an article is posted to several newsgroups, and further discussions is to take place in only one of them. In e-mail, this header may occur in a message which is sent to both e-mail and Usenet News, to show where follow-up in Usenet news is wanted. The header does not say anything about where follow-up in e-mail is to be sent. Note that the value of this header must always be one or more newsgroup names, never e-mail addresses.
