Section 3.6.6. Rese says:
When resent fields are used, the "Resent-From:" and "Resent-Date:" fields MUST be sent. The "Resent-Message-ID:" field SHOULD be sent.
It should say:
When resent fields are used, the "Resent-From:" and "Resent-Date:" fields MUST be set. The "Resent-Message-ID:" field SHOULD be set.
Notes:
[Verifier note: The original report only noted the second use of the word "sent". I have updated to include both. I have marked as "Hold" because (a) I believe the meaning is clear in the current and (b) it is not obvious that "set" is the correct word here; perhaps "used" is better. Left for an editing pass when this moves to Standard.]
