6.12.  Archive
   This optional header is a signal to automatic archival agents on
   whether this article is available for long-term storage.

      Archive-content     = [CFWS] ("no" | "yes" ) [CFWS]
      Archive-header-parameter
                          = Filename-token "=" value
                            ; for USENET-header-parameters see 4.1
      Filename-token      = [CFWS] "filename" [CFWS]

   Agents which see "Archive: no" MUST NOT keep the article past the
   date when it would otherwise have expired. "Archive: yes" merely
   confirms what is already the default state. The optional Filename
   parameter MAY then be used to suggest a filename under which the
   article should be archived.  Further extensions to this standard may
   provide additional parameters for administration of the archiving
   process.
