GitHub user sebbASF opened an issue:

    https://github.com/apache/incubator-ponymail/issues/177

    Bug: "medium" and "original" id generators are not sufficiently unique

    The "original" and "medium" generators only take account of the message body, date and list id.
    This is not sufficient to uniquely identify a message. For example, automated services may send subject-only mails, and may send more than one with the same time.
    
    Since the generated id is used as the database key, this means that only one of the messages will be stored in the database.
