You just shot yourself in the foot with that one: desireable messages
do indeed have unique IDs, so if you get multiple messages with
identical IDs, that's a very quick and easy way to identify and zap
spam...

The same thing applies to missing IDs - if it doesn't exist, send the
message straight to /dev/null. Problem solved!

So tell me again exactly how this is a negative or is a problem?!?!?!
