TECH-ERROR/DOC-BUG: empty fields in -pra

2004-09-02 17:49:55


I'm tending to the opinion that the words 'non-empty' should simply be
deleted from section 2 of -pra.  They seem to serve no purpose other
that to add complexity, and for all the header fields in question,
empty field bodies are illegal, and I don't believe they are prevelent
in the wild.

If they must remain, then the wording should be made more accurate, ie

 "Locate the first non-empty Resent-Sender header in the message."

should become

 "Locate the first Resend-Sender field in the message that has a
 non-empty field body"

and similarly for the other references.
