MailItem Message ID Changes After Sending — Causes ‘Item Not Found’ on Lookup

[shivani-cloudextend]

Describe the bug

We are using Microsoft Graph to create and send emails in the following way:

1. Create a draft message
   var draftMessage = await graphClient.Users[userEmail].Messages.PostAsync(message);
2. Send the draft message
   await graphClient.Users[userEmail].Messages[draftMessage.Id].Send.PostAsync();
3. Get the sent message using its internetMessageId
   After sending, we try to retrieve the sent message by filtering with its internetMessageId:

var filter = $"internetMessageId eq '{draftMessage.InternetMessageId}'";

var messageCollectionResponse = await graphClient.Users[userEmail].Messages.GetAsync(
    requestConfiguration => requestConfiguration.QueryParameters.Filter = filter
);

The issue is
When we create the draft, we receive an initial message.Id.

After sending the message, we can look it up successfully using the internetMessageId.
However, after some time, the original messageId becomes invalid — it changes in the mailbox, and trying to retrieve the message by the old ID results in an ErrorItemNotFound error.

Expected behavior

The messageId returned when creating or sending the message should remain consistent and valid
