 === Inbound/Outbound Patterns
 On the inbound side, by default, all Pulsar headers (message metadata plus user properties) are mapped to `MessageHeaders`.
-On the outbound side, by default, all `MessageHeaders` are mapped, except `id`, `timestamp`, and the headers that represent the Pulsar message metadata.
+On the outbound side, by default, all `MessageHeaders` are mapped, except `id`, `timestamp`, and the headers that represent the Pulsar message metadata (i.e. the headers that are prefixed with `pulsar_message_`).
 You can specify which headers are mapped for inbound and outbound messages by configuring the `inboundPatterns` and `outboundPatterns` on a mapper bean you provide.
-
+You can include Pulsar message metadata headers on the outbound messages by adding the exact header name to the `outboundPatterns` as patterns are not supported for metadata headers.
 Patterns are rather simple and can contain a leading wildcard (`\*`), a trailing wildcard, or both (for example, `*.cat.*`).
 You can negate patterns with a leading `!`.
 The first pattern that matches a header name (whether positive or negative) wins.
