Thats right, and my point is:
I find that when mail, without a Message-Id:, is received by my ISP,
'they' add that header.  So if I find a Message-Id with my ISP in that
header, its deleted.  I have not had a false positive using that rule.
It's been working now for 3 months and catches an average of 10 spam
mails per day.

That is why I mentioned it.  Makes no difference to me what you do
tho.  Go for it.
