The odds are very good there is nothing wrong with either your machine or
Entourage, but rather with the date and time on the machine of the person
who sent you the mail. Certain things, such as zapping the PRAM, or battery
troubles on a portable, can cause the system date on a Mac to get reset to
zero...which is interpreted as January 1, 1904. Ask your friend to check his
or her Date and Time control panel; I'll bet the date is wrong.
