[users@httpd] mod_expires > Stop setting the Age header?

[Geoff Millikan <gm...@t1shopper.com>]

After researching let me write note to self: Apache doesn't let me unset the Age header using "Header unset Age" as a global config
because even though it would appear to be waste of overhead to calculate it, and a waste of bandwidth to send it, RFC2616 requires
it because I'm using mod_disk_cache.

"An HTTP/1.1 server that includes a cache MUST include an Age header field in every response generated from its own cache."
http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec14.html#sec14.6 

Good work Apache for enforcing the spec!

Thanks,
