Mail created date time
Hi all, I've a question regarding the 'Created Date Time' within emails. I receive periodic emails from one of my bank accounts and when they come through, there is no created date or time in them. I sort my mail by created date, but because these mails don't have a created date, they're not sorted correctly. I've approached the organisation in question and they assure me that the date is included in all their outgoing mail. So why do I not receive it and why is it only from this one location? I've attached a screen print (it's in Thunderbird, but it's the same with TB!) for people to see. I've tried comparing headers and all I can see that is different, is after the 'Subject' header, there is no 'Date' header. Could this be what is missing? -- Chris Current version is 3.0.1.33 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

Hi Thomas, The original quoted text below was written on 20/01/2005 16:56 my local time; I can imagine that their date stamp is not according to the RFC. As I'm sure most of their mail is system generated, I suspect something is missing somewhere. Didn't come through, obviously. But what I would be more interested in is the headers of that message rather than a screenshot. Especially the Date header. I forgot that TBUDL doesn't allow any attachments. If I get time tonight when I get home, I'll put some up on the internet and post the link. Args. No Date header? Send the headers back to them for examination. I cannot fathom a server en route would strip a Date header, though. Sounds weird. I've already written to them twice including a screen print. They said they couldn't open the attachment (.png) for security reasons, so I have to write to them and print out a copy of the screen print :-( Current version is 3.0.1.33 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

Hi all, The original quoted text below was written on 20/01/2005 17:16 my local time; Apologies about the missing cut marks. I didn't notice to start with, but when I change identities in Thunderbird, it removes it!?
