Side note: that regexp should match "Message-ID" case-insensitively.
git send-email is an outlier in its capitalization of "Message-Id",
most RFCs capitalize it "Message-ID", as do common MUAs.

git send-email's capitalization does annoy me and I've looked
into changing it; but there's a bunch of tests and probably
dependent code that also need to be updated...

"git format-patch" does it without send-email, but I see that send-email
will then parse its output, and would turn any capitalization into the
"Message-Id" form again.

We could probably just have it preserve whatever capitalization it finds
if there's an existing header, we wouldn't fix anything, but we'd move
the blame around a bit :)
