Still, not sure. From what I read about message IDs, they are to be produced by mail servers - not email clients. If my provider (gmx) receives my outgoing mail, it deletes the Message-ID and generates a new one. They do not want Humpdy Dumpdy to send mails with their own Message-ID, because there's a risk: it might not be world-wide unique. I would do that, too. I cannot set the Message-ID in mailers like Gnus, Evolution, Outlook, Thunderbird. If I'm wrong, I'd be interested in a way to that - so I could try it myself.
