Internet Header message ID is different - Sent Items and Inbox

[Batra@discussions.microsoft.com Kailash Batra]

I am logged in Online mode and I send myself an email. I noticed that the
message ID of the email in my sent items is different from the one that I
receive. Another colleague, when he does the same - the message IDs are the
same. What's a possible explanation?

basically I have an issue with scenario #1 in the attached technote -

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/924213

any ideas whether this is a problem on outlook side or exchange? (version
2003)

Is it causing you problems?

[Batra@discussions.microsoft.com Kailash Batra]

Yes it is. We file the email on send to another system (document management
system) that's integrated with outlook. The document management system uses
the message ID for duplicate detection. In my case, I end up filing
duplicates because the message IDs are different.

Ok, in that case, I would open a case with Microsoft.

The "Message-ID" (a MAPI property) in a message in your "Sent Items"
folder isn't the same as the "Message-ID" in an RFC822 header.

MAPI property:
c=US;a= ;p=ORGNAME;l=SERVERNAME-090729022750Z-10

RFC822 header:
Message-ID:
<9A197D99C0D2BE4881EF1...@SERVERNAME.DOMAIN.com>

Thanks Rich. I understand that - I was specifically talking about the
following property - PR_INTERNET_MESSAGE_ID

[Kailash Batra]

Thanks. So you agree that the IDs should be the same. I'll open a case w/
Microsoft.

Well, I dont agree with anything :P
That article implies its expected doesnt it? I only said to open a
case if its causing you issues and see if they have a workaround. ( I
admit I didnt read the whole KB you linked)

Are you working with Outlook in cached-mode?

If you work in on-line mode that property should be the same. When I
look at messages I sent (in cached-mode) that property is absent (as
it says in the KB article you referenced.

3. Message sent/received in Cached mode and viewed in Cached mode
- PR_INTERNET_MESSAGE_ID is NOT present on message in Sent
Items

I'm not sure if this is a problem on Outlook or Exchange, but I found it has
something to do with the option "Send immediately when connected" in Outlook.

When it's checked the values are equal.

Have you discovered something new?
