The main reason for using imap is so that state is independent of individual clients so I expect most users would rather use the server's internal date for the message (which is usually the date the server first saw the message, although it can be set by the client when uploading via imap so that archives have the right date). There's technically no reason both can't be supported, although it would complicate the interface, so maybe Letters should track this, but only expose it with a plugin?
