You can add a Message-ID as Exim before 4.30 would have done, with
something like the following in a DATA ACL:

  warn  condition = ${if !def:h_Message-ID: {1}}
        message = Message-ID: <E$message_id@$primary_hostname>

But you will get _unique_ Message-ID headers from the above -- there
won't be any duplicates if you receive the same message twice from a
remote host; only if you receive one message to multiple recipients.
