Re: Message ID's and News Gateways




Yes putting comments in RFC822 message-id's is legal, as long as you
do it right:
    Message-Id: <94Jan12.221139est.71895(3)@yukon.cren.org>
    Message-Id: <94Jan12.221139est.71895(2)@yukon.cren.org>
These are the same message-id.

Comments are illegal in Usenet message-id's.
It's the responsibility of the gateway to do the right mapping.

Still and all, I'd rather see 822/821 implementations not insert comments
willy-nilly.
