[issue6598] calling email.utils.make_msgid frequently has a non-trivial probability of generating colliding ids

[Antoine Pitrou]

Antoine Pitrou <pitrou at free.fr> added the comment:

Is it ok if the message id is predictable?
Besides, _gen_next_number() can more efficiently be written as:

_gen_next_number = itertools.cycle(xrange(N))
