    Bug: archiver adds a Message-Id to mails if they don't have one

    The archiver unconditionally adds a Message-Id header to any messages that don't have one.
    This is generated from the archived-at header, which is itself generated from the current time if it does not exist.
    
    Adding the header changes the source message which does not seem right.
    The id will not be present in any other archives that have the message.
    
    It's also a poor message id as it has no random element
    
    The importer also adds the header, however it does not set the archived-at header so the generated id is always the same for a given list.
    
    The Message-ID value does not have the conventional format so at least it can readily be detected.

    It looks like lists.a.o is running different code as it does not add Message-Id if it is missing; see for example:

    I've just realised that adding a Message-Id to an incoming message invalidates the field as a message invariant.
    
    The code that does this needs to be removed.
