I've been looking at some of the reports that aren't parsing correctly, and noticed that some are reporting dates that are set by badly configured machines. One such report is 155174. In this examnple the report was recieved in August 2004, but was alledgly sent in January 1997. Now since the first post to the list was in August 1999, I'm assuming that the real date the above post was sent was August 2004.
So this has given me something to think about. How should I parse the date? Should I always look for the last possible recieved date and fallback on the given Date: header, or just accept the given Date: header, or some other scenario? Thought appreciated.
