Computer Hacking Forensic Investigator (CHFI v10) — Question 258

Which of the following email headers specifies an address for mailer-generated errors, like "no such user" bounce messages, to go to (instead of the sender's address)?

Answer options

• A. Mime-Version header
• B. Content-Type header
• C. Content-Transfer-Encoding header
• D. Errors-To header

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The Errors-To header is specifically designed to handle addresses for error messages, directing them to a specified address rather than the original sender. The other headers, such as Mime-Version, Content-Type, and Content-Transfer-Encoding, serve different purposes related to the formatting and encoding of the email content, not error handling.
