Missing msgid check?

[John Horne <jo...@plymouth.ac.uk>]

Hello,

I noticed in our log that some messages were being reported with no
Message-Id header ('mid=(unknown)'):

BAYES_00,HTML_MESSAGE,HTML_OBFUSCATE_10_20,J_CHICKENPOX_63,J_CHICKENPOX_73,J_CHICKENPOX_93,MIME_HTML_ONLY,RCVD_IN_BL_SPAMCOP_NET,SARE_UNI scantime=1.6,size=29978,mid=(unknown),bayes=5.55111512312578e-17,autolearn=no


Checking to see if there was a rule to mark messages with no message-id
I came across this from a short while ago:
http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/spamassassin-users/200603.mbox/%3c87wtfdjpei.fsf@newton.gmurray.org.uk%3e

However, in there it says that the rule MSGID_FROM_MTA_ID would be
activiated. As can be seen from the log, it isn't. Our own MTA does not
'fix' messages without the message-id header, so the message must have
arrived without it.

Is this a bug with SA (the rule not being used when it should), or do I
need to create an actual rule to check for a missing Message-Id header?
We are using SA version 3.0.6.


Thanks,

John.
