6.19.1.1.  The posting-host-parameter

   If a dot-atom is present, it MUST be a FQDN identifying the specific
   host from which the injecting agent received the article.
   Alternatively, an IP address (dotted-quad or ipv6-numeric) identifies
   that host. If both forms are present, then they MUST identify the
   same host, or at least have done so at the time the article was
   injected.

        NOTE: It is commonly the case that this header identifies a
        dial-up point-of-presence, in which case a posting-account or
        logging-data may need to be consulted to find the true origin of
        the article.
