64 bits should be plenty. At that point, the chances of an accidental collision
of Message-ID:s due to a crypto failure is already far below other software
bugs causing Message-IDs to be reused. Remember, Message-ID isn't guaranteed
to be crypto-secure - we'd need a *lot* more infrastructure worldwide to
actually guarantee that.
(Remember that many of us store those Message-ID's in 'procmail -D' files.
No sense in bloating them beyond what's needed ;)
