7.1.1. The Body of the 'newgroup' Control Message
The body of the newgroup message contains the following subparts,
preferably in the order shown:
1. An "application/news-groupinfo" part (7.1.2) containing the name
and newsgroups-line of the group(s). This part MUST be present.
2. Other parts containing useful information about the background of
the newsgroup message (typically of type "text/plain").
3. Parts containing initial articles for the newsgroup. See section
7.1.3 for details.
In the event that there is only the single (i.e. application/news-
groupinfo) subpart present, it will suffice to include a "Content-
Type: application/news-groupinfo" amongst the headers of the control
message. Otherwise, a "Content-Type: multipart/mixed header" will be
needed, and each separate part will then need its own Content-Type
header.
