Hallo Peter,

TB uses the host-part of the address to form the msg-id. Unfortunately
it doesn't use the host-part of the from-address, but the host-part of
the address configured for the account you're using.
Due to restrictions imposed on me by software (that I don't use any
longer) I setup TB to use one account for all of my addresses.
(Separate identities for different folders) When I create a new
account someone@someplace in TB, TB uses @someplace for the msg-id for
messages coming from that account. So I thought to change the main
address of my primary account in order to create a nice msg-id, I
inserted a sub-domain (my domain, so I issue sub-domains). Exit TB,
restart TB, but TB doesn't flinch, it still uses the old config for
the msg-id. That was the part I considered macro's, but they're not
available. So I skipped the whole thing.
PP> So the only solution I see is an own MTA that filters incoming mails from

Well, my server could do it. I'm using Mailtraq as mail-server and
with a script like beneath I should be able to change the msg-id:
SetHeader( "Message-ID", WildcardMatchReplace(Header("Message-ID"), "*@krakeel.org",
"$1" ++ "." ++ AddressOf(Header("From")));
So it's not that difficult.
But that does not take care of robots using my address (and even my
TB), so that was why I looked for possibilities in a template.
PP> I could imagine of 'work arounds' or better 'expansions to existing MTA' e.g.
PP> qmail but I don't think it's _really_ worth the effort :-)
Yep.
