I was going to say "did you read the CHANGES file" but I now see I never 
wrote in there what I'm about that say :-/

There was a change in 2.03 to do with Message-IDs - but it's not to do 
with stripping.

Pre-2.03, if QS saw that a message didn't have a Message-ID header, it 
added one. This meant that SA always saw emails with Message-IDs. 
However, this was a bad thing to do: as no "proper" MUA should be 
generating mail without Message-IDs. SA has rules to detect the lack of 
Message-IDs, and pre-2.03 was "lying" to it.

So I removed it. Now if a message hits QS without a Message-ID, QS 
passes that to SA without the added "faked" Message-ID - and SA can 
score it correctly. Then after the scoring has been done, QS will add a 
Message-ID to it (if one isn't present) - just as it used to.

Even though I can't see how that could affect you, that's the closest I 
can come - does that explain your symptoms?
