Well § is a printable character, but it is above the first 127 bytes

is ASCII the full 255 character set, and the upper 127 ones containing
certain control characters and some localized code-table specific
characters.
ASCII is just the first 128 characters (0-127). Above that it is
something else - Extended ASCII, ISO-8859-1, CP860 etc.

IF Lotus Notes is is using a non-ASCII character in a Message-ID, it's
wrong.
RFC 5322 has the grammar for a Message-ID. It definitely doesn't allow
any characters above 127 (and some characters below 127 are only allowed
in a certain format).
I'd say it's unusual to reject a message because of an invalid
Message-ID, but a § definitely makes the Message-ID invalid, so the
receiver can do what it wants and still conform to the standards.
Are you sure that Lotus Notes is using that character? Have you got an
example?
