/***
 * This class is used to construct a bare minimum
 * acceptable header for an email message.  To construct more
 * complicated headers you should refer to RFC 5322.  When the
 * Java Mail API is finalized, you will be
 * able to use it to compose fully compliant Internet text messages.
 * <p>
 * The main purpose of the class is to faciliatate the mail sending
 * process, by relieving the programmer from having to explicitly format
 * a simple message header.  For example:
 * <pre>
 * writer = client.sendMessageData();
 * if(writer == null) // failure
 *   return false;
 * header =
 *    new SimpleSMTPHeader("foobar@foo.com", "foo@bar.com" "Just testing");
 * header.addCC("bar@foo.com");
 * header.addHeaderField("Organization", "Foobar, Inc.");
 * writer.write(header.toString());
 * writer.write("This is just a test");
 * writer.close();
 * if(!client.completePendingCommand()) // failure
 *   return false;
 * </pre>
