x.x. References

A followup MUST have a References header, and an article which is not a followup MUST NOT have a References header. In a followup, if the precursor had a References header, the message ID of the precursor is appended to the end of the precursor's References-content to form the followup's References-content. a References header containing the precursor's message ID. A followup to an article which had a References header MUST have a References header containing the precursor's References content, plus the precursor's message ID appended to the end of the list.
