Package: alpine
Version: 2.20+dfsg1-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

Git can put patches in alpine's postponed-msgs mailbox ready to be sent. For
instance:

    git format-patch origin/master.. --thread >>"$HOME/mail/postponed-msgs"

The '--thread' option tells Git to make it so the emails for second and
subsequent patches are replies to the first email by setting the 'Message-ID:'
field of the first email and the 'In-Reply-To:' field of the others.

But editing and postponing sending the first email causes alpine to rewrite the
'Message-ID:' field of that first email, thus breaking the threading.

So it would be much better if alpine did not rewrite that field if present.
