SBBSecho has added a MSGID to the NetMail it creates itself (notify lists, AreaMgr replies) since 96712a1c35 (focuses-28-lives, 2021-11-12). A notify
list generated by the current code (`sbbsecho -G`) starts with:
```
^AINTL 1:103/13 1:103/705
^ATZUTC: -0700
^AMSGID: 1:103/705 6abc6c3c
^APID: SBBSecho 3.37-Linux master/~01a7630c62 Sep 29 2026 GCC 14.2.0
Following are the options set for your system and a list of areas
```
Could you tell us which SBBSecho version sent the notify list (the `PID`
line of the message, or `sbbsecho` run with no arguments), and where you
found the MSGID missing: in the `.msg` file in the NetMail directory, in the outbound packet, or as seen on the receiving system?
Testing this turned up a related problem, fixed in 6c6d3dcbf9 (hepatitis-11-takes, 2026-09-29): the MSGID
serial was the current time in seconds, so NetMail messages created within
the same second shared a MSGID. That happens with a notify or area list that
is split into several messages to the same node, and a receiving tosser that checks NetMail for duplicates by MSGID could discard the later parts. Each generated message now gets a unique serial.
