Hello:

   Imagine the next scenario, an application that for whichever reason
introduce in the requests the Connection:close header (HTTP/1.1). The server
that receives the request spends some time calculating the answer of the
request so it used Transfer-Encoding: chunked. The server decide by itself
that close the connection when it receive the Connection:close header in a
request. Is it right? I think that not becasuse if the client sends the
Connection:close it only says that he will close the connection after the
request is fullfilled, right?

Regards,
Mario.
