Without opening the above URLs, you can immediately tell it's
from April 6, 2016.
Message-IDs are not supposed to be human-meaningful:
The "Message-ID:" field provides a unique message identifier that
refers to a particular version of a particular message. The
uniqueness of the message identifier is guaranteed by the host that
generates it (see below). This message identifier is intended to be
machine readable and not necessarily meaningful to humans. A message
identifier pertains to exactly one version of a particular message;
subsequent revisions to the message each receive new message
identifiers.

If you want URLs to be human-meaningful, don't use Message-ID.
I for one thing Mutt shouldn't invent its own, but just use a random
UUID, like so many other MUAs.

If you upload your address book to "the cloud", I don't want to be in it.
