Hello,

As surprising as it may seem, Message-ID is actually not a mandatory email field [1]. While most MTAs do add this
field,some might not, and this will cause load_message.py to crash.
 
As a solution to this, when this field is missing, this patch:
- attempts to find a "Sent-Message-ID" header and use it as the Message-ID (a case I encountered when trying to import
anold mbox)
 
- generates a new Message-ID if none exists, following (a simpler version of) [2].

Cheers,
