Release Problem with Message ID

Hi

Im am using MailScanner 4.78.17, rpm install on Centos 5 and sendmail as 
my mta

I have recently had a problem where customers that are using Exchange 
2007 were not getting the messages they released from quarantine (I just 
copy the qf and df files to the mail queue).

I tracked this down to Exchange treating the released message as a 
duplicate as it had the same Message-ID as the message advising an 
attachment had been blocked.

I have

Quarantine Whole Messages As Queue Files = yes

and I can see in my quarantine files are indeed quarantined as qf and df 
files.

I can see other people have had the same problem and the advice was to 
make use of the following config option in MailScanner.conf

Remove These Headers = X-Mozilla-Status: X-Mozilla-Status2:

I have set it to

Remove These Headers = X-Mozilla-Status: X-Mozilla-Status2: Message-Id: 
Message-ID:

and restarted MailScanner

But the message ID is not being removed - I can manually view the file 
in quarantine and its still there.

When looking at the Message ID in the raw qf file it actually appears as

H??Message-ID:

So I also tried

Remove These Headers = X-Mozilla-Status: X-Mozilla-Status2: Message-Id: 
Message-ID: H??Message-ID:

But it still not did get removed.

Any ideas? Can someone confirm this works in 4.78.17

Kind Regards

Paul
