Interesting. You reminded me of an MH-E implementation that uses MD5 checksums to create an X-MHE-Checksum header field to perform quick lookups of current messages. Note that we would use this header field even if the message was signed. I guess we didn't know about Content-MD5 (RFC 1864). I can't find its documentation. I suppose from the RFC, it's primary use would be to add it to outgoing messages (perhaps via a send argument). In MH-E's case, we need to add the header field to a received message, so we'd probably use anno. p.s.
