Qmail is an *Internet* mail delivery agent; it is an error to use qmail-inject to process any other kind of message. As the entry point to Internet mail delivery, qmail-inject ensures that the messages it outputs are compliant with RFC 822. It also takes some non-standard messages (e.g., those lacking a Message-ID) and fixes them up to be compliant. This is hardly "broken"; it is a natural (and obvious, and useful) consequence of injecting your message for Internet mail delivery. - Pat
