Since all {USENET}-content starts with [CFWS], and we only require a
single space after the colon, this should be
{USENET}-header = {USENET}-name ":" SP {USENET}-content
*( [CFWS] ";" ( {USENET}-parameter /
other-parameter ) )
(This just removes a trivial parsing ambiguity, it is not a material
change to the syntax).
