Is there a way to change the timestamp on mail to moderated lists to

Only by changing the source code, and it isn't a good idea. RFC 2822
Sec. 3.6.1 [1] specifies the meaning of the Date: header and says in
part:
The origination date specifies the date and time at which the
creator of the message indicated that the message was complete
and ready to enter the mail delivery system.

[1] http://www.cse.ohio-state.edu/cgi-bin/rfc/rfc2822.html
The only required header fields are the origination date field and
the originator address field(s).
I had a feeling we'd be up against something like that.
But many a non-moderated listserv typically replaces the FROM header
with the listserv's reply address, do they not?
For instance, this header from a Sourceforge list doesn't appear to
display any info other than "[EMAIL PROTECTED]", and I suspect
the timestamp is that of the listserv, not the original sender:

Not to say that just because someone else is doing it against the
rules that I should be allowed to as well, of course. I don't have
enough clout to circumvent the mail rules the way some of the big
guys do.
You could look at Mailman/ListAdmin.py at the point where it adds the
X-Mailman-Approved-At: header to an approved message. You could also
add a Resent-Date: header, and your user's MUAs may sort on that.
Worth a try.
