commentinc,            commentomit,            commentstrip,            commenttotal,            sourcecommentinc,            sourcecommentomit,            sourcecommentstrip,            sourcecommenttotal)         PMDF only interprets the contents of header lines when necessary. However, all registered headers containing addresses must be parsed in order to rewrite and eliminate shortform addresses and otherwise convert them to legal addresses. During this process comments (strings enclosed in parentheses) are extracted and may optionally be modified or excluded when the header line is rebuilt.
On destination channels, this behavior is controlled by the use of the 
commentinc, commentomit, 
commentstrip, and commenttotal keywords. 
commentinc tells PMDF to retain comments in header lines. 
It is the default. commentomit tells PMDF to remove any 
comments from addressing headers, e.g., To:, From:, Cc: 
headers, etc. commenttotal tells PMDF to remove 
any comments from all headers, except Received: headers; as such, this 
keyword is not normally useful or recommended. And finally, 
commentstrip tells PMDF to strip any nonatomic characters 
from all comment fields.
On source channels, this behavior is controlled by the use of the 
sourcecommentinc, sourcecommentomit, 
sourcecommentstrip, and sourcecommenttotal 
keywords. sourcecommentinc tells PMDF to retain comments 
in header lines. It is the default. sourcecommentomit 
tells PMDF to remove any comments from addressing headers, 
e.g., To:, From:, Cc: headers, etc. 
sourcecommenttotal tells PMDF to remove any comments from 
all headers, except Received: headers; as such, this keyword is not 
normally useful or recommended. And finally, 
sourcecommentstrip tells PMDF to strip any nonatomic 
characters from all comment fields.
These keywords can be applied to any channel.
