The message IDs are there (sorted) :

  http://www.teaser.fr/~amajorel/misc/sdiy-msgid.txt

Assuming your synth-diy mailbox is synth-diy.mbx, this command
will extract the message IDs in it into synth-diy.msgid :

  awk '! inpar && /^From .*@.* 2007 *$/ { inheaders = 1 }
    /^$/ { inpar = 0; inheaders = 0 }
    /./ { inpar = 1 }
    inheaders && tolower($1) == "message-id:" { print $2 }' synth-diy.mbx |
    sort >synth-diy.msgid

If synth-diy.msgid and sdiy-msgid.txt are identical, we have got
exactly the same messages. Otherwise, this command will give you
the messages you missed :

  join -v 1 sdiy-msgid.txt synth-diy.msgid

And that one the messages I missed :

  join -v 2 sdiy-msgid.txt synth-diy.msgid
