Section 5.2.1.1 says:
A newgroup control message requesting creation of the moderated newsgroup example.admin.info. From: "example.* Administrator" <admin@noc.example> Newsgroups: example.admin.info Date: 27 Feb 2002 12:50:22 +0200 Subject: cmsg newgroup example.admin.info moderated Approved: admin@noc.example Control: newgroup example.admin.info moderated Message-ID: <ng-example.admin.info-20020227@noc.example> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary="nxtprt" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
It should say:
A newgroup control message requesting creation of the moderated newsgroup example.admin.info. | Path: not-for-mail From: "example.* Administrator" <admin@noc.example> Newsgroups: example.admin.info Date: 27 Feb 2002 12:50:22 +0200 Subject: cmsg newgroup example.admin.info moderated Approved: admin@noc.example Control: newgroup example.admin.info moderated Message-ID: <ng-example.admin.info-20020227@noc.example> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary="nxtprt" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
Notes:
As the mandatory Path: header field is missing, this control message is only a proto-article.
A control message is defined in Section 5 as an article which contains a Control: header field. Therefore, a Path: header field should be added to the headers of this sample newgroup control article.
