I just got this email message named "MSGID re-use" from a  "Sergey Dorofeeve"
with the address "2:5020/12000". It says "Hello Bill,

for a while I see, that your software not always generate new MSGID for new
message as it should by FTS-0009:
" The serial number may be any eight
     character hexadecimal number,  as long as it is unique - no two
     messages from a given system may have the same serial number
     within a three years.  The manner in which this serial number is
     generated is left to the implementor."

For example:
=== 1st ===

@PID: VA-VFIDO 2.10 96100117
               The following files arrived today at *Square One
=== cut ===

I think it should be somehow streamlined to provide monotonic MSGID growth."

Any idea what it's talking about?

Thanks
