Right, however, the release notes for version 2.24 say:
+ Alpine uses the domain in the From: header of a message to generate
a message-id and suppresses all information about Alpine, version,
revision, and time of generation of the message-id from this header.
This information is replaced by a random string.
Would upgrading to a more current version of Alpine help you? (see the
message-id of this message to see it in action).
