Hi, RFC 3261 says:

 8.2.2 Header Inspection

   If a UAS does not understand a header field in a request (that is,
   the header field is not defined in this specification or in any
   supported extension), the server MUST ignore that header field and
   continue processing the message.  A UAS SHOULD ignore any malformed
   header fields that are not necessary for processing requests.


But it doesn't explain what a malformed header is. Is it a header with a wrong 
value? For example, in the following case is there a malformed header and the 
UAS should ignore the header o isn't there a malformed header but a incorrect 
message syntax and the UAS should discard the entire message?

Thanks.
