Fix dates via IMAP on messages

[David J. Orman]

Thank you to the two gentleman who gave me useful input. I think I'll  
go about it how you said, I checked a few random messages out of the  
bunch and the received date looked correct. Good enough for me, I  
just need the dates to be somewhere in the correct ballpark, a few  
minutes makes no difference (these are mails from 7 years ago.. who  
are we kidding..)

To the guy with the huge chip on his shoulder, if you don't have  
something helpful to say, don't say anything. I looked at the  
getdate.y you keep mentioning the first time you brought it up, no  
need to slam other people who are attempting to help, and have VALID  
points. I don't need all 40830484 spam mails that are stuck in my  
archive suddenly popping up as my most recent mail, that would be a  
NIGHTMARE. I'd *much* rather work off the received by date stamp. I  
appreciated your input the first time, and I thank you for it, but  
really - no need to be so abrasive to other people trying to help. It  
just so happens I like their solution best.

Cheers,
David
