Note

The length of the value portion of header, that is, the string after the colon (:), is validated only in .NET Framework and .NET Core versions 2.0 - 3.1.

On all applicable .NET Framework versions: A WebHeaderCollection instance that's returned by the Headers property will throw an ArgumentOutOfRangeException if the length of the value portion of header is greater than 65535. All other WebHeaderCollection instances accept a value of any length.
On .NET Core versions through version 3.1: A WebHeaderCollection instance used with any header of type HttpResponseHeader will throw an ArgumentOutOfRangeException if the length of the value portion of header is greater than 65535. All other WebHeaderCollection instances accept a value of any length.
On .NET 5 and later versions: WebHeaderCollection accepts a value of any length.

Remarks

The header parameter must be specified in the format "name:value". If the specified header does not exist in the collection, a new header is added to the collection.

If the header specified in header is already present in the collection, the value part of the header is concatenated with the existing value.
