as said: fix the application or try to solve that at MTA level
The correct place would be the MSA.
If all mail genrated by Web appliocations woul pass through a working MSA fixing them up, a lot of problems would go away.
if at all the MTA has to deal with metadata as it does with missing message-id's - LDA/LMTP should never change anything inside a message and just store "as it is"
An intermediate MTA has no business meddling with headers except for trace headers as specified in the standard.
because the date header is mandatory undefined behavior
right
i had running MTA's reject any message missing date or message-id at all
Message-ID is SHOULD.
Only Date and From are required.
And refusing mails without them is a good strategy, if your (recipient) customers don't complain.
