Dear everyone,


how do you deal with the following situation?

Outlook for example does not set Message-ID in the header most of the
time [1]. Sympa gets the message and distributes the message to the MTA.
The MTA sets an individual value Message-ID for each message.
Consequently if someone answers other people will have problems with
threading in their MUA since Reply-To has a different value.

Should this case be handled in Sympa and does Sympa has an option for
this? Or should this case be taken care of in the MTA? Andreas Metzler
gave a possible solution for Exim [2] already.


Thanks,

Paul
