Mail Dated 01/05/08?
in [Mac Systems]

From: Davoud on 25 Jun 2008 18:30 I'm not very familiar with Apple's Mail.app; I've been using Entourage for years. I am temporarily forced to use Mail on a new MB Pro because I am short one MS Office Mac license (have only six licenses, need seven). In the mail list the relative dates "today" and "yesterday" are fine, and the times are all correct, but all mail before "yesterday" is dated "01/05/08." The system clock is right. Mail is received from four distinct servers, ..Mac and three POP servers, and the result is the same for all. Huh? TIA. Davoud -- usenet *at* davidillig dawt com

Date Sent corresponds to the "Date:" header in the message. Date Received is the timestamp in the uppermost "Received:" header. What do you see if you look at the full headers? -- Barry Margolin, barmar(a)alum.mit.edu Arlington, MA *** PLEASE post questions in newsgroups, not directly to me *** *** PLEASE don't copy me on replies, I'll read them in the group ***

The "Date Received" column seems to display the date the mail was imported into Mail.app. Use the "Mail Sent" column, it's more useful anyway.

There's no indication that he imported the mail on January 5 or May 1, and I doubt he'd wait until late June to post about it. -- I kill Google Groups posts.
