== SpamAssassin Rule: MSGID_FROM_MTA_HEADER ==

''Standard description:'' Message-Id was added by a relay

=== Explanation ===

The Message-Id header appears above at least one Received header in the message.  This is a good indication that the Message-Id was generated by a relay, rather than by the user agent.  This may be an indication of poorly behaved mailing software.

=== Further Info ===

The default scores for this rule can be found [[http://spamassassin.apache.org/tests.html|in the online list of tests]].

Message-Id is defined as an optional field that ''should'' be present (
[[http://www.apps.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2822.html#sec-3.6.4|RFC 2822 sec 3.6.4]]).
