6.21.6.2. Message/news withdrawn
The Content-Type "message/news", as previously registered with IANA,
is hereby obsoleted and should be withdrawn. It was never widely
implemented, and its default treatment as "application/octet-stream"
by agents that did not recognise it was counter productive. The
Content-Type "message/rfc822" SHOULD be used in its place, as already
described above.
