Hi!

Good idea!

Is it permissible for message IDs to contain double quotes?  If not (and
I hope so), might id:\"[^\"]+\" be a better regexp?  (Untested.)  As it
appears to me, this would allow proper matching in text like this, too:

    Bla bla, see id:"some at thing".  Bla bla.


Even if not favorable, should a syntax without double quotes be
supported, too?  Here we'd really have to match on whitespace and line
end, as everything else is too ambiguous.


Grüße,
 Thomas
