taking this to the development:

just checked rfc 3501; @ APPEND:

(..)
      If a date-time is specified, the internal date SHOULD be set in
      the resulting message; otherwise, the internal date of the
      resulting message is set to the current date and time by default.
(..)

ilja, are we currently supporting a date-time string with an append command (i'm pretty sure i never implemented it :$)?

rfc 3501, @ COPY:
(..)
The flags and internal date of the
      message(s) SHOULD be preserved, and the Recent flag SHOULD be set,
      in the copy.
(..)

is this being done according to the specs?

regards roel

Onderwerp: [Dbmail] DbMail Outlook Received Date
Antwoord aan: [email protected]

Hello DBMail users,

I installed DBMail (1.2.3) on my server and copied a lot of emails to an folder in dbmail. Problem is the "received date", that is shown by email-clients. When using clients like thunderbird or kmail everything works fine. But some users still use Outlook as email-client. In Outlook the received date is wrong. Outlook shows the date, when the email is copied into the dbmail server (the value of "internal_date" in table messages). I tried the same thing with an another IMAP-Server (Cyrus) and there it works with the "original" receive date of the email.

Is this a problem of Outlook, or why does dbmail sends this date to the client? Perhaps you have an idea how to solve this. It is not very nice to have 5000 mails with the same date in one folder. :-)

Greetings,
Ronny
