The format is wrong, he is pointing it out.  In the email that was
sent, it is in the format:

  [short day] [month] [date] [hh:mm:ss] [year]

ie: Mon Feb 11 19:10:43 2002

However, it should be in the format:

  [short day,] [date] [month] [year] [hh:mm:ss] [UTC Offset]

ie: Tue, 11 Feb 2003 19:10:48 +0000

According to the RFCs, the date format on the mail you showed, is
incorrect. If you want to get a little more technical, read the RFC
2822, section 3.3. This breaks down to what I pointed out above,
showing that the format of the Date: header in the email you are
having issues in is wrong.
