	</td></tr>
    <tr valign="top"><td>hdridx</td>
	<td>Header index value (1-based). A hdridx value of 1 will modify the first occurrence of a header named headerf.  If hdridx is greater than the number of times headerf appears, a new copy of headerf will be added.

<!----------- Return values ---------->
<tr>
<th valign="top" align=left>RETURN VALUES</th> 

<td>
smfi_chgheader will return MI_FAILURE if
<ul><li>headerf is NULL
    <li>Modifying headers in the current connection state is invalid.
    <li>Memory allocation fails.
    <li>A network error occurs.
    <li>SMFIF_CHGHDRS was not set when <a href="smfi_register.html">smfi_register</a> was called.
</ul>
Otherwise, it returns MI_SUCCESS.
</tr>

<!----------- Notes ---------->
<tr align="left" valign=top>
<th>NOTES</th> 
<td>
<ul><li>While smfi_chgheader may be used to add new headers, it is more efficient and far safer to use <a href="smfi_addheader.html">smfi_addheader</a>.
    <li>A filter which calls smfi_chgheader must have set the SMFIF_CHGHDRS flag in the smfiDesc_str passed to <a href="smfi_register.html">smfi_register</a>.
    <li>For smfi_chgheader, filter order is important.  <b>Later filters will see the header changes made by earlier ones.</b>
    <li>Neither the name nor the value of the header is checked for
    standards compliance.  However, each line of the header must be under
    2048 characters and should be under 998 characters.  If longer headers
    are needed, make them multiline.
    <b>It is the filter writer's responsibility to ensure that no standards
    are violated.</b>
</ul>
