message-ID (e.g. when exporting from SBBSecho). This addresses compliance with this [editorialized] clause in FTS-9: No system should ever add an MSGID and/or REPLY to, or modify an existing MSGID / REPLY contained in, a message not originating on that [FTN] system. Messages gated from other networks (technically coming from another system, but originating into an FTN from this system) will still have an FTN Message-ID generated/added. Since SBBSecho normally tosses to downlinks directly from packets, this adding of generated Message-IDs would no normally occur. However, if a downlink rescanned an area, any messages missing Message-IDs would get them generated automatically and they would appear to have originating on the local system. This was never the intention, so this is just a long standing but infrequently observed (and never reported) bug.
