H_USER Header Flag (V8.11 and Later)

Certain headers are set by the submitting user, such as Subject:, whereas others can be added by sendmail, such as Message-Id:. Those that were supplied in the submitted message are marked with this flag so that sendmail can differentiate them from headers it generated itself.

No headers have this flag defined by default, and you should never define it in conf.c.
