Not an implementation of MicrosoftSMTP(tm) is it? :-)

Hmm, I have wondered for a bit why Smail (presumably Exim does it
because it's based loosely on Smail) refers to SMTP as smtp in
"Received:" headers since it's an acronym, and why it uses those
rather odd style message-ids that look like gibberish.
Anyone throw any light on this?
