But smtpd may not be the originating SMTP server.  For "local"
messages (that originated on the server) it knows to add the
Message-ID if missing.  I don't think it should be adding it to
relayed messages.  Messages received on the submission port are
special, they need to be treated as local even though they originated
elsewhere.
