Does anyone have any outlines on how I might use exim (version 4.52) to fix/replace a broken Date: header? The application in question is sending a date header in the format:
Date: Wed, 19 07 06 12:54:28 -0500 Of course this format is broken, and we'll contact the vendor regarding it, but in the meantime it would be nice if I can use exim to fix this. (Microsoft Outlook displays this as "Fri 1/19/2007 12:54 PM", but since the format's not valid, I can't really fault this as an Outlook bug.) As this application does send a unique X-Mailer: header and I already have the "submission/sender_retain" control option due to this very same vendor not providing Message-ID headers in previous versions of their software, I'm hoping I can use the following rough logic: if X-Mailer == "broken vendor" then remove Date header As long as I can do this before the control logic fires, it seems to me this would be the simplest solution, rather then adding logic to rewrite the broken header.
