I'm seeing some odd behaviour.  I've one email in +inbox where I've
broken Date:.

    $ p -after '01 Jan 2040'
    pick: unable to parse date field in message 6608, matching...
    1 hit
    $ slp
     6608+ 01-00  me                test — = 

Good, so that worked.  The broken one without a date is treated as
matching.

    $ p -before '01 Jan 1960'
    pick: unable to parse date field in message 6608, matching...
    6077 hits
    $ 

Again, it matched, but why did every other email get treated as being so
old?

Cheers, Ralph.
