I believe it is just a wraparound --
the senders MUA perhaps wrote something like
"Date: Fri, 01 Jan 1904 00:45:35 +1100" into the headers
and translated to a recipients more western time zone, the
above example translates (at a Macintosh) to 05 Feb 2040
sometime late at night.
No idea if this is just expected behavior or considered
a bug.
