7.5. Duties of a Posting Agent
A Posting Agent is used to assist the poster in creating a valid
proto-article and forwarding it to an injecting agent.
Postings agents SHOULD ensure that proto-articles they create are
valid according to [USEFOR] and other applicable policies. In
particular, they MUST NOT create any Injection-Date, Injection-Info
or Complaints-To header.
Contrary to [RFC 2822], which implies that the mailbox(es) in the
From header should be that of the poster(s), a poster who does not,
for whatever reason, wish to use his own mailbox MAY use any mailbox
ending in the top level domain ".invalid" [RFC 2606].
Posting agents meant for use by ordinary posters SHOULD reject any
attempt to post an article which cancels or Supersedes another
article of which the poster is not the author or sender.
