I added a missing message ID warning and found that it would drop
legitimate SMTP mail that was forwarded by qmail. That was enough of
an exeption for me to not provide this as a spam blocking feature.

There has to be a better reason than being strict to the letter of
some RFC that was written when Postfix already existed.
