Knowing a sent message's ID can be important for later queries about
the message's status.
To work around this, Anymail by default generates a new Message-ID for each
outgoing message, provides it to SendGrid, and includes it in the
:attr:`~anymail.message.AnymailMessage.anymail_status`
attribute after you send the message.
To work around this, Anymail generates a UUID for each outgoing message,
provides it to SendGrid as a custom arg named "anymail_id" and makes it
available as the message's
:attr:`anymail_status.message_id <anymail.message.AnymailMessage.anymail_status>`
attribute after sending. The same UUID will be passed to Anymail's
:ref:`tracking webhooks <sendgrid-webhooks>` as
:attr:`event.message_id <anymail.signals.AnymailTrackingEvent.message_id>`.
In later SendGrid API calls, you can match that Message-ID
to SendGrid's ``smtp-id`` event field. (Anymail uses an additional
workaround to ensure smtp-id is included in all SendGrid events,
even those that aren't documented to include it.)
To disable attaching tracking UUIDs to sent messages, set
:setting:`SENDGRID_GENERATE_MESSAGE_ID <ANYMAIL_SENDGRID_GENERATE_MESSAGE_ID>`
to False in your Anymail settings.
Anymail will use the domain of the message's :attr:`from_email`
to generate the Message-ID. (If this isn't desired, you can supply
your own Message-ID in the message's :attr:`extra_headers`.)
.. versionchanged:: 3.0
To disable all of these Message-ID workarounds, set
:setting:`ANYMAIL_SENDGRID_GENERATE_MESSAGE_ID` to False in your settings.
Previously, Anymail generated a custom :mailheader:`Message-ID`
header for each sent message. But SendGrid's "smtp-id" event field does
not reliably reflect this header, which complicates status tracking.
(For compatibility with messages sent in earlier versions, Anymail's
webhook :attr:`message_id` will fall back to "smtp-id" when "anymail_id"
isn't present.)
