Do we need to add more?
I am looking at Spencer's writing of:
NOTE: News message IDs are a restricted subset of
MAIL message IDs. In particular, no existing news
software copes properly with MAIL quoting conven-
tions within the local part, so they are forbid-
den. This is unfortunate, particularly for X.400
gateways that often wish to include characters
which are not legal in unquoted message IDs, but
it is impossible to fix net-wide. See the notes
on gatewaying in section 10.
is this still applicable?
