For non-moderated groups that's reasonable enough.

Not only does this break with rejected submissions, it also breaks if
the moderator modifies any part of the message.  If the message id is
changed it's not so serious since all that happens is duplication, but
if the moderator does things like respond to postings in line while
approving them (this does happen) and doesn't change the message ID then
it will cause more serious problems.
