That's right number, and it refers to the headers used by USENET.  While
putting the list name in a Newsgroup: header would solve some problems,
I suspect it would cause others, particularly where people have written
RFC822 specific mail handlers, which complain about invalid (i.e., not
in RFC-822, and not X-) headers.
