[jira] Commented: (JAMES-444) Add support for "Expires" header in remotedelivery

["Stefano Bagnara (JIRA)" <se...@james.apache.org>]

    [ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JAMES-444?page=comments#action_12377565 ] 

Stefano Bagnara commented on JAMES-444:
---------------------------------------

Here again. I read the referenced RFCs but I can't find instructions on how to use the Expires date. Nothing about what to do and when.
It seems that the header is registered but that the MTA should not try to do actions interpreting this header.

Its usage in news (RFC1036) is not related to the spooling of the message but to the presence of the message in the archives.
