	Hi,
it's not the mail count, it's count of calls for the message ID
generation function, which is very different and I do not expect it
being any private information, especially because it's tight to
evolution instance currently running, same as the PID. Time is set in
the Date header as well.

The current way of generating message-id is pretty much standardized.
I would change anything on it personally, I'm sorry.
	Bye,
