I couldn't find the message number there nor could I
find it in one of the following web archives:

http://www.mail-archive.com/opensuse%40opensuse.org/
http://www.nabble.com/openSUSE-community-f15809.html
http://dir.gmane.org/gmane.linux.suse.opensuse.user

But Gmane also provides access to the archive over its
usenet server. It's possible to donwload only the
message headers with a newsreader. The desired message
number is found by displaying the full headers and
looking for a header called Original-X-From. That's
basically what I wanted though it would be nicer if
lists.opensuse.org provided the message number in its
web archive.
