When I connect from localhost there's no associated remote host address;
only an associated _local_ host address :)

You can add Message-ID: and Date: headers for selected hosts (including
localhost) in an ACL. You could do it for From: too if you wanted, but
make sure you handle bounces properly. The header 'From: <>' isn't
valid.

  warn  hosts = +relay_hosts
    condition = ${if !def:h_Message-ID: {1}}
    message = Message-ID: <E$message_id@$primary_hostname>
  warn  hosts = +relay_hosts
    condition = ${if !def:h_Date: {1}}
    message = Date: $tod_full
