All you have to do is give your box a hostname other than
"localhost.localdomain" and your problem is forever solved.

Sure, 1.0.x is "broken" (if you believe that message-ids actually have
meaning in your life), but 1.1.0.99 does a dns lookup on your hostname
and so is no longer broken.

Let me ask you this:

what difference does it really make if a message-id is world-unique or
not? Does this let MUAs eliminate duplicate messages based on
message-id? Hell no (if you need to ask why not, then you obviously
haven't though about security concerns). Does this solve world hunger?
Again no. Does it bring about World Peace? I wish.

So why do you even care? What difference does it make?
