Hello:
Yes, by convention, any custom header is prefixed with "X-". Usually
you want to make a header name that describes what it is going to be
used for. Some examples of custom headers I've seen are:
X-Spam-Flag
X-Loop
X-Sender
X-Mailer
X-AOL-IP
X-Priority
X-MimeOLE
X-Originating-IP
X-Authenticated-Sender
As you can see, they are self-explanatory. You can create an add as
many headers as you want.
