Thanks to google, I found it in an online Sendmail manual at
http://www.busan.edu/~nic/networking/sendmail/ch14_01.htm
14.1 Headers
The header configuration command begins with the letter H. Like all
configuration commands, the H is the first character on a line. The H is
then followed by the name of a header:
Hname: field
Here, name is the name of a header, such as Subject. The list of all
header names that are of interest to sendmail can be found in Chapter
35, Headers. The name is followed by a colon and then text that is
appropriate for the header. Optional whitespace can surround the colon.
Sigh.
