7.3.3.  Examples

   Plain "mvgroup":

      From: "example.all Administrator" <admin@example.invalid>
      Newsgroups: example.admin.groups, example.admin.announce
      Date: 30 Jul 1997 22:04 -0500 (EST)
      Subject: cmsg mvgroup example.oldgroup example.newgroup moderated
      Message-ID: <mvgroup-example.oldgroup-19970730@example.invalid>
      Approved: admin@example.invalid
      Control: mvgroup example.oldgroup example.newgroup moderated
      Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary=nxt

      --nxt
      Content-Type: application/newgroupinfo

      For your newsgroups file:
      example.newgroup        The new replacement group (Moderated)

      --nxt

      The moderated group example.oldgroup is replaced by
      example.newgroup. Please update your configuration.
      --nxt--

   More complex "mvgroup" for a whole hierarchy:

   The charter of  the group example.talk.jokes contained a reference to
   example.talk.jokes.d, which is also being moved. So the charter is
   updated.

      From: "example.all Administrator" <admin@example.invalid>
      Newsgroups: example.admin.groups, example.admin.announce
      Date: 30 Jul 1997 22:04 -0500 (EST)
      Subject: cmsg mvgroup example.talk.* example.conversation
      Message-ID: <mvgroup-example.talk-19970730@example.invalid>
      Approved: admin@example.invalid
      Control: mvgroup example.talk.* example.conversation
      Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary=nxt

      --nxt
      Content-Type: application/news-groupinfo
