6.20. Complaints-To

6.20.  Complaints-To
   The Complaints-To header is added to an article by an injecting agent
   in order to indicate the mailbox to which complaints concerning the
   poster of the article may be sent.



      Complaints-To-content
                          = mailbox

   A Complaints-To header MUST NOT be added to an article by any agent
   other than an injecting agent. Any Complaints-To header present when
   an article arrives at an injecting agent MUST be removed. In
   particular if, for some exceptional reason (8.2.2), an article gets
   injected twice, the Complaints-To header will always relate to the
   second injection.

   The specified mailbox is for sending complaints concerning the
   behaviour of the poster of the article; it SHOULD NOT be used for
   matters concerning propagation, protocol problems, etc. In the
   absence of this header, such complaints should be sent to "usenet@"
   or "news@" the path-identity which was prepended to the Path header
   by the injecting agent following section 5.6.2.
