How to get Message-ID back from SES?

[marknadig]

Saw your comment over http://robots.thoughtbot.com/post/3105121049/delivering-email-with-amazon-ses-in-a-rails-3-app that it is possible to get the Message-ID that SES generated back, but is is not clear to me how.

Note: I tried setting my own Message-ID as others have reported that amazon ses just moves that to the "In-Reply-To" when it generates its own, but I'm not seeing that behavior. Basically, I'm trying to track replys back to the original email. Custom headers (X-...) are stripped by gmail.

I'll second this request. It looks like Action Mailer gives the message its own id rather than using Amazon's, so its message_id method does not reflect what is actually sent. Knowing the correct message_id is useful for tracking, so this would be nice.

Hi Steven, I completely agree it'd be very useful. I'd be more than happy to accept a patch/PR that implements it!

I think you can close this with #41 merged in.

Also, could we get a version bump for this?

I did a version bump and committed it. Rubygems is still in RO mode, so I can't release it yet.

Hey folks,

What is the recommended way to get the message-ID back from SES in ruby? ActionMailer seems to be overriding the message-id and is really of no use to send emails in a thread.
