Does that actually strip the one from mutt, or just prevent esmtp from
_adding on if missing_. Peng Yu is trying to stop mutt adding a message
id.
Maybe the objective can be achieved by stripping the mutt-provided
message-id in the sendmail setting before it reaches the MTA?
Untested:
set sendmail="sed '1,/^\$/{/^Message-ID:/d'}' | /usr/bins/sendmail"
(The backslash if for mutt, not sed or the shell.)
