In the example you draw regardin the 'Server' header that is returned by a HTTP server while processing WAP requests, this is indeed not of a high relevance for the client itself, so we could ommit it to reduce size of the resulting WSP data pushed to the client. Agree here. Can you point out what the issue with the "extention of 1 to 2 SMS" means in this sense? I didn't get the point here?
