Uh? Reading RFC822, I come to the exact opposite conclusion.

<http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc822.txt>:
3.1.2.  STRUCTURE OF HEADER FIELDS

        Once a field has been unfolded, it may be viewed as being com-
        posed of a field-name followed by a colon (":"), followed by a
        field-body, and  terminated  by  a  carriage-return/line-feed.
        The  field-name must be composed of printable ASCII characters
        (i.e., characters that  have  values  between  33.  and  126.,
        decimal, except colon). 

cheers,
&rw
