5.  Mandatory Headers

   An article MUST have one, and only one, of each of the following
   headers: Date, From, Message-ID, Subject, Newsgroups, Path.

   Note also that there are situations, discussed in the relevant parts
   of section 6, where References-, Sender-, or Approved-headers are
   mandatory. In control messages, specific values are required for
   certain headers.

   A proto-article (see 8.2.1) may lack some of these mandatory headers,
   but they MUST then be supplied by the injecting agent.
