I think the easiest thing is to generate the full message including headers
and Message-ID. This way you know what it is before you start. I don't
remember which option you need to pass to sendmail for it to except headers
to, but the man page should help. Don't forget to make sure the Message-ID
is unique (really unique) as this is a prerequisite for e-mail, and also
make sure you form it of the correct characters.
