3.2.4 Control
The Control header marks the article as a control message, and
specifies the desired actions (additional to the usual ones of
storing and/or relaying the article).
control = "Control:" SP [FWS] control-message [FWS] CRLF
control-message = verb *( [FWS] argument )
verb = token
argument = value
The verb indicates what action should be taken, and the argument(s)
(if any) supply details. In some cases, the body of the article may
also contain details. The legal verbs and respective arguments are
discussed in the companion document, [USEPRO].
An article with a Control header MUST NOT also have a Supersedes
header.
