Section 9.4.3 says:

over-content = 1*6(TAB hdr-content) /
      7(TAB hdr-content) *(TAB hdr-n-content)

It should say:

over-content = 7(TAB hdr-content) *(TAB hdr-n-content)

Notes:

Section 8.3.2 describes the OVER command and mentions that there are seven mandatory fields. Though trailing tabs MAY be omitted in OVER responses, it is impossible to have 1*6(TAB hdr-content) owing to the sixth and seventh fields being the metadata :bytes and :lines which are mandatory items (and MUST be computed by the news server).

Less than 7 entries cannot occur for news servers implementing OVER (which should not be confused with XOVER).
