Errata ID: 5867
Status: Held for Document Update

Section 4.5.7 says:

   obs-received    =   "Received" *WSP ":" *received-token CRLF

It should say:

   obs-received    =   "Received" *WSP ":"
                       [1*received-token / CFWS] [ ";" date-time CRLF ]
                    

Notes:

Erratum 3979 already describes that CFWS should be allowed in an otherwise empty list of received-tokens. This adds an optional date-time after that.
