Maybe I don't use FCC as other people are using it, but why would I
care about the Message-ID fields in the FCC file?  For my purposes, it
suffices to have the "standard" fields; after all, the file is used
simply to archive mail messages that I have sent out.  

Sure, the messages saved in the FCC file may not be full
RFC822-conforming messages, but as long as I can treat it like any
other folder with VM, I don't really care a whole lot.  Of course it
would be nicer if this folder was consistent with others, and had full
RFC822 headers, but is there a use for this?  Tell me what I'm
missing.
