Hi guys!
I was looking how Pan generates Message-id header and in my humble
opinion is that it should be improved. Pan is now generating message-id
in format pan.2013.01.14.12.00...@gmail.com and as far as I can see it
there can happen a situation where two users could end up with the same
msg-ids. For example plenty of users are now using gmail address so the
msg-id part right of @ sign will be the same for plenty of users. Lets
say that two users who are both using gmail address and they are placed
in different timezones send their message, one sends his message exactly
at 12:00:01 and other one exactly at 14:00:01, they will end up with the
same message-id.
Please correct me if I'm wrong?
Most other newsreaders generate msg-id with some random letter/number
combination and with some static string at the end or at the beginning
of the string. This is example msg-id generated by slrn.
<slrna1b2c3.d4e.u...@example.com>
I'm willing to write code for this if you guys agree and if you think
that it would benefit pan as an improvement.
