It's just an email header added by your MUA.
For example:   Message-ID: <4DCA7E40.9070709 at lwfinger.net>

The advantage of this is that links change and vanish. However, message
IDs don't. The message ID uniquely identifies a message, regardless of
where it's stored. So even if the mail archive moves to another URL,
it's still possible to find the actual mail by the ID.
