Failing to add Message-ID to messages in IMAP Sent folder
Last modified: 2011-09-30 12:39:01 UTC
When I send a mail to a mailing list it ends up coming back to me with a message-id like "<1317371652.26672.236.camel@zakaz.uk.xensource.com>" (so this is what I beleive is actually getting sent and this makes sense). However the version of the same mail in my (Exchange IMAP) sent box has "<45B8991A987A4149B40F1A061BF49097B2EBA64834@LONPMAILBOX01.citrite.net>". On another mail account which is a Courier IMAP server the mails in my Sent box appear to have no Message-ID at all, which seem consistent with this being a client side issue (which exchange is "fixing" for me by making one up). I need to be able to find the actual message-id used for a sent mail so I can use e.g. "git send-email --in-reply-to" etc. I guess it's possibly a violation of some standard or other too? This appeared to start happening around about the time when I upgraded my Debian packaged version 2.32.3-3 -> 3.0.3-1+b1. I still have 2.6.32.3 on another machine and it does not appear to have this issue.
