Tim Allison commented on TIKA-1976:
-----------------------------------
I also ran tests for dates < 1980 or > 2017. I found that mime4j is parsing
~275 dates before 1980. Mostly of these formats, which are parsed as the year
95 A.D.

> On TIKA-1970, [[email protected]], reported that the
> RFC822Parser was not parsing a date in text file created by Mac Mail. For
> kicks, I ran the RFC822Parser against roughly 19k files in our regression
> corpus identified as rfc822 by either Tika, file or Droid, and I found that
> ~3700 files (~20%) had dates that weren't parseable.
> Upon first look, there seem to be a few major patterns that will fix most of
> the problems.
