Nope, because that ID is from a previous MTA process.  I think the ID
you're looking for is the PIPE id - in this case 4537081.

Remember that MailScanner does a two step with the MTA.  First the MTA
receives the mail from somewhere, then hands it off to MailScanner for
analysis, then hands it back to an MTA for delivery.  The 4537072 id is
the first MTA interaction where it is received.  The PIPE id 4537081 is
presumably the ID that Communigate Pro is giving it after MailScanner
has done it's thing.  On my system at least, the ID used by MW is the
last id assigned by the MTA.  

But I've never played with CGP so maybe it does it differently?
