Oops, I meant SMTP id. 

Here's a piece of sendmail's header:
===
Received: from mx.supermedia.pl (mx.supermedia.pl [195.116.124.27])
        by lama.supermedia.pl (8.8.7/8.8.5) with ESMTP id KAA28391
        for <stroker@lama.supermedia.pl>; Mon, 1 Jun 1998 10:11:58 +0200
===

ESMTP id is "KAA28931" where first letter indicates hour (A for
0, B for 1 and so on).


And here's zmailer's header:
===
Received: from sas91248.sas.com ([192.58.191.248] EHLO
auerhahn.eur.sas.com
ident: TIMEDOUT [port 43012]) by mx.supermedia.pl with ESMTP id
<538911-10208>; Mon, 1 Jun 1998 10:11:09 +0200
===

ESMTP id is "<538911-10208>". Is there any relation between this id and
time message has arrived to server?
