There's no "Message-Id" header in there. All I see is just the "id
1AtZ9k-0002lk-Oo" part in a received by line.
Exim 4.30 has now stopped fixing missing Message-ID headers (as well as From
and Date headers). Your email client should send one, and if not you might
be able to get your local SMTP server to do it for you. Search the mailing
list for a discussion about this about a month ago which showed ACL stuff
you can add to your Exim server to have it fix missing headers.
