When there is no disposition-notification-to header
in the client request, I am not returning an MDN.
What should I return instead? There's one web
server I'm testing that will generate an HTTP error if I don't provide some
content-type.
RFC 2298 was meant for email and does not discuss
HTTP.
Will I be ok with the following?
:
##########################################################################
# The posting client has not requested an MDN. None will be
sent.
#
# EDIINT-AS2 DRAFT 1-2003
7.6 excerpt:
# The HTTP server-side application may
respond with an unsolicited
# multipart/report as a
message body that the HTTP client might not have
#
solicited, but this may be discarded by the client. Applications should
# avoid emitting unsolicited receipt replies because
bandwidth or
# processing limitations might have led
administrators to suspend asking
# for
acknowledgements.
#
print
"content-type: text/plain\n";
print "connection:
close\n";
print "\nposted without MDN request
(disposition-notification-to)";
Thanks,
Dave
