MessageHeader Class
Represents the content of a SOAP header.
Assembly: System.ServiceModel (in System.ServiceModel.dll)
A message header contains optional metadata that describe a message encapsulated by the Message class.
A Message can have zero or more headers that are used as an extension mechanism to pass information in messages that are application-specific. You can use Headers to add message headers to a message by calling the Add method.
Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) provides a number of predefined message headers, as shown in the following table.

Action | Provides a description of how the message should be processed. |

Request | Indicates whether the message is a request. |
MessageID | Contains the unique ID of the message. |
RelatesTo | Contains the IDs of messages that are related to this message. |
