6.8.  Mail-Copies-To

   The Mail-Copies-To-header indicates whether or not the poster wishes
   to have followups to an article emailed in addition to being posted
   to Netnews and, if so, establishes the address to which they should
   be sent.

   The content syntax makes use of syntax defined in [RFC 2822].

      header      =/ Mail-Copies-To-header
      Mail-Copies-To-header
        = "Mail-Copies-To" ":" SP Mail-Copies-To-content
      Mail-Copies-To-content
        = copy-addr / [CFWS] ( "nobody" / "poster" ) [CFWS]
      copy-addr   = address-list

   The keyword "nobody" indicates that the poster does not wish copies
   of any followup postings to be emailed. This indication is widely
   seen as a very strong wish, and is to be taken as the default when
   this header is absent.

   The keyword "poster" indicates that the poster wishes a copy of any
   followup postings to be emailed to him.

   Otherwise, this header contains a copy-addr to which the poster
   wishes a copy of any followup postings to be sent.

        NOTE: Some existing practice uses the keyword "never" in place
        of "nobody" and "always" in place of "poster". These usages are
        deprecated, but followup agents MAY observe them.  The actions
        to be taken by by followup agent when following up to an article
        containing a Mail-Copies-To header are set out in section 8.6.

   Whether or not this header will also find similar usage for replies
   to messages sent to mailing lists falls outside the scope of this
   standard.
