Well... I found it... RFC2156 ( http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc2156.html )
:-)
So... this lead me to thinking, "Why not add the same header with my
procmail recipes, even if the message did NOT originate in an X.400
environment? (Who cares where the message originated? It's on my system
now, and I can programmatically predict when I no longer want it.)
I do the same, but use a realy unique Header like suggested
(X-$USER-Expires:) because I wo not want to run into trouble,
if someone sends an Expires: header.
Because I am using Maildir, it is realy easy to grep each hour all
messages and look to the Expiration Header to delete the message.
Of course, I don't have anything yet that actually DELETES the expired
items... but at least the headers are there if/when I develop/find
something... :-)
;-)
But, I also prefer to adhere to standards wherever possible...
You should use a REALY unique Expires: header for internal use.
