MS additional header line

[Dennis Willson]

MailWatch.pm gets that 'id' from MailScanner. It's not generated by 
MailWatch, just recorded (I looked at the MailWatch.pm code. I'm not 
sure where MailScanner gets it. I assume the MTA, but I'm not sure. I 
see the id he's referreing to... in the MailWatch database. This is 
the same ID that is used to release quarantined Spam and Virus. So 
MailScanner can relate that ID to a message.

I believe he wants to be able to look at an emails headers and then go 
to the 'jump to message' and enter the ID and go to the details and do 
what ever he needs.
