send-email: add --[no-]outlook-id-fix option
Add an option to allow users to specifically enable or disable
retrieving the Message-ID from the Outlook SMTP server. This can be used
for other hosts mimicking the behaviour of Outlook, or for users who set
a custom domain to be a CNAME for the Outlook SMTP server.
While at it, lets also add missing * in description of --no-smtp-auth.
