I crave the wisdom of the Monks.

I am using NET::SMTP script to send emails in HTML format, but as this is one of the tests of spamassassin I am getting close to or exceeding the 5.00 score to be classed as "spam". (One problem is that the date in the proper format is required these days, so that has to be generated and put into the headers. Doing so brings the score down by 0.6 it seems.)

Anyway, one header that we "should" have in the emails is the Message_ID. I cannot find a way to generate a Message_ID header and I wondered if anyone out there can help? My ISP do not have Email::Message_ID module on their list of modules

Thanks a lot

Geoffrey
