@Component public class OverCommand extends Object implements Command
Class handling the OVER/XOVER command. Description of the XOVER command: 
 XOVER [range]

 The XOVER command returns information from the overview
 database for the article(s) specified.

 The optional range argument may be any of the following:
              an article number
              an article number followed by a dash to indicate
                 all following
              an article number followed by a dash followed by
                 another article number

 If no argument is specified, then information from the
 current article is displayed. Successful responses start
 with a 224 response followed by the overview information
 for all matched messages. Once the output is complete, a
 period is sent on a line by itself. If no argument is
 specified, the information for the current article is
 returned.  A news group must have been selected earlier,
 else a 412 error response is returned. If no articles are
 in the range specified, a 420 error response is returned
 by the server. A 502 response will be returned if the
 client only has permission to transfer articles.

 Each line of output will be formatted with the article number,
 followed by each of the headers in the overview database or the
 article itself (when the data is not available in the overview
 database) for that article separated by a tab character.  The
 sequence of fields must be in this order: subject, author,
 date, message-id, references, byte count, and line count. Other
 optional fields may follow line count. Other optional fields may
 follow line count. These fields are specified by examining the
 response to the LIST OVERVIEW.FMT command. Where no data exists,
 a null field must be provided (i.e. the output will have two tab
 characters adjacent to each other). Servers should not output
 fields for articles that have been removed since the XOVER database
 was created.

 The LIST OVERVIEW.FMT command should be implemented if XOVER
 is implemented. A client can use LIST OVERVIEW.FMT to determine
 what optional fields  and in which order all fields will be
 supplied by the XOVER command.

 Note that any tab and end-of-line characters in any header
 data that is returned will be converted to a space character.
