Any clue on how this Message-ID got generated ?

TommyLindqvist

A user of mine got his mail blocked by NIDS-protection. Culprit seems to be
this Message-ID: header.

I have mangled addresses and domains, but retained the national characters
in the TO: fields, in case they have a bearing on why Outlook generates such
an outrageous Message-ID:

Version of Outlook could be seen below. For the user in question, this type
of Message-ID seems to be coupled to the recipients in this case, as he can
send to me without those ID's being generated.

I have yet to make him see the light and try to send a message to the bare
address without the Real Name attached to the To field.
