Oops, right you are, Marck:-) Didn't think about this. Actually, this could be
corrected *pretty* simple indeed... If only the developers found a bit of spare
time (they're apparently quite busy with scanning the X-Mailer: fields of each
and every message they only can get hold of, as Stefan has kinda confessed
lately on TBBETA:-))... The "received" time should apparently be equal to the
*latest* time stamp found in the Received: headers, IMO. If implemented this
way, many problems would have gone forever...
