    Description

      Header names should follow rules described here:

      https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5322#section-2.2

      However, rules for custom headers seems to be more restrictive - for example @ or = are not allowed.

      I see that these characters are mentioned in https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2616#page-16, but it only says that they should be in quotes. However I am not able to configure header containing them in quotes either.

      Is this on purpose?
      If yes, this needs to be mentioned in analysis&documentation. If not, we need to create critical JBEAP jira for 7.4

          • Major - To be worked after higher priority work items are addressed. When the severity is high and the effort to change it is low to moderate, this term is chosen. Issues in this category likely have an existing workaround but implementation or execution may be non-trivial.
