Yes, these messages are copletely missing the Date: header. Par example,
a printer reporting a paper-jam situatuion sends me a message without
date: field, just because the printer don't have an internal clock! I
think the cuestion is how to best deal with these non-rfc-compliant emails.

When using mozilla as mail client, I see 1/1/1970 as mail date,
then this email goes to the bottom of the list and I don't see it!
If I read that correctly, you mean the Date: header is completely
missing from these emails? If that's the case, the administrative
tools that generate the messages are at fault, not dbmail. Mozilla
probably just sorts messages by that header, and sounds like it has
arguably sane behavior when that header (which is required per
rfc 2822) is missing.
