Hi all, Just curious. I know that mail clients and servers can utilize a couple of forms of "dating" for mail messages, one being the actual date header and one being the timestamp of the mail file itself (I believe this corresponds, for example, to Pine's sorting by date vs. arrival). I may not be exactly right here, and there may be more ways, but what I'm wondering is whether anybody knows of an already-written utility to scan through a maildir and "reset" the file timestamps based on the date header in the mail message. In transferring a bunch of my mail to my new server, I can copy lots of mail back and forth using IMAP, but (especially for Pine) it would be nice to actually reset the timestamps on the messages so that they really do exist in the order they arrived. Now, resetting based on the date header doesn't help for those messages I've received from users whose computers' clocks were set to the year 2024, but those are mostly exceptions.
Anyway, this is not a big deal at all, but I thought somebody might know of a utility already written to do this. I've Googled but haven't found anything, and I can't spare the time to write it myself. It may be that everybody else has already determined that this is not worth it (so why write a script/utility to do it?), in which case I can just forget about it. Thanks in advance, if you know of something out there.
