Summary: Bogus date returned in INTERNALDATE
Description:
Pine reports that an INTERNALDATE value prior to 1970 (probably?) is a
"bogus date"
Pine Error:
[{MYHOST.XYZ:993/imap/ssl/novalidate-cert/ : Bogus date: 31-Dec-1899
00:00:00 -0800]
I have noted this piece of code in dbmail-imapsession.c:
/* internal date */
query_result = db_get_result(i, IMAP_NFLAGS);
strncpy(result->internaldate,
(query_result) ? query_result :
"01-Jan-1970 00:00:01 +0100",
IMAP_INTERNALDATE_LEN);
Presumably there should be a check to determine if the query_result is <
1-1-1970, and if so, to return 1-1-1970. It should not return values from
1899, or other such nonsensical things that spammers send.

INTERNALDATE is set to the current timestamp UTC by default. IMAP can
APPEND messages with a specific INTERNALDATE, and we will just respect what
the client says.
