Hi Felix,

The message-ID is assigned by the campaign MTA while sending the message as an SMTP email header and is unique for each recipient. It is generated based on an algorithm which is present in the server side code.

This is generated in runtime by MTA and does not persist in the database to be retrieved later or viewed.

The message ID is a global standard for mailing systems and is documented here :

Hi @felixsongfei 

In addition to what Adhiyan has explained about the message ID creation, if you want to see the message ID for an email that was sent out - it can be seen from the tracking server logs
Alternatively, if you click on any URL in the mirror page you would see the 3 IDs in the URL before the redirection happens, the first ID is the message ID. As in the below screenshot.
