outlooks SMTP-server change the Message-ID of messages
and put the original Message-ID to X-Microsoft-Original-Message-ID.
the changed Message-ID has some issues:
- outgoing messages with bcc_self enabled are shown twice
as the self-copy got the changed Message-ID while the database uses
the original one
- read receipts do not work as they refer to the changed message id
- in general, sender and recipient see different Message-IDs
the issues can be fixed by
(1) let all receivers use the original Message-ID
this is what this pr is doing
and this should fix all issues with delta-to-delta communication,
including groups, group-images etc.
there may be issues left in communication
with other MUAs as they are using another Message-ID.
(2) ftr: updating the Message-ID in the database of the sender to the new one
this requires bcc_self always enabled (which is not the case)
and may also result easily in race conditions
(Bob answers before Alice sees its self-sent message),
however, has the advantage of better compatibility with other MUA.
if needed, the compatibility with other MUA could be improved by remembering
both Messages-IDs, maybe we could treat the modified as References or so,
however, i think, this could be part of another PR if we know better about
real, in the wild issues.

Development
# run tests
$ cargo test --all
# build c-ffi
$ cargo build -p deltachat_ffi --release
Debugging environment variables
-
DCC_IMAP_DEBUG: if set IMAP protocol commands and responses will be printed -
DCC_MIME_DEBUG: if set outgoing and incoming message will be printed -
RUST_LOG=info,async_imap=trace,async_smtp=trace: enable IMAP and SMTP tracing in addition to info messages.
Expensive tests
Some tests are expensive and marked with #[ignore], to run these
use the --ignored argument to the test binary (not to cargo itself):
$ cargo test -- --ignored
