CAPAB is a command that is sent to signal to the remote server which 
protocol extensions you support.  For example a server might support the 
following:

TS QS EX CHW IE KLN KNOCK ZIP UNKLN ENCAP

TS = TS protocol
QS = Quit Storm
EX = Supports +e channel ban exemptions
CHW = Channel wall
IE = Supports +I channel invite exemptions
KLN = remote klines
KNOCK = /knock command
ZIP = Ziplinks
UNKLN = remote unkline
ENCAP = supports ENCAP command

This is by no means a full list, but really could can send anything you 
want as an option as long as both sides agree it means the same thing, if 
only one side has the option, neither side uses it.
