That is a good change, but if we are making this change while are at
it, I think we should fix it to read <message id>.  "Message-Id" is
a good spelling iff we are talking about the label on the left hand
side of colon in e-mail header, but in this context, we are talking
about the value to be placed on that header.

All the other multi-word placeholders in the SYNOPSIS section spell
the words as normal multiple words separated with whitespace in
lower case.  You'd also want to fix the spelling of Subject-Prefix
to <subject prefix> for consistency.

Thanks.
