On the other hand, if use of Outlook 2003 (a beta, un-released
product) is sufficiently widespread, then this rule will get a lower
result in 2.60 than it does in 2.55, since it will be less good as a
spam indicator.

If you're on the Office 2003 beta programme, then you might consider
reporting the alleged change in behaviour (apparently, Outlook no
longer generates its own Message-ID, relying on the MTA to generate
one instead) as a possible bug.

Likewise, if that's in the corpora used by people contributing to the
mass-checks it'll affect the score in 2.60.
