I tried, but I couldn't find a solution.  The closest thing I could
find is the info below from the RFC.  If I read this right setting the
date and time to the email header's date/time actually breaks the RFC?
 If so then I guess, while less useful, mbsync is actually correct in
the way it behaves.  Of course I'm still all in favor of breaking the
RFC and setting the date/time to email header date/time.  The append
operation sounds like the most likely culprit, but I'm sure all this
is nothing new to an  IMAP master:
http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3501#section-2.3.3
2.3.3.  Internal Date Message Attribute
   The internal date and time of the message on the server.  This
   is not the date and time in the [RFC-2822] header, but rather a
   date and time which reflects when the message was received.  In
   the case of messages delivered via [SMTP], this SHOULD be the
   date and time of final delivery of the message as defined by
   [SMTP].  In the case of messages delivered by the IMAP4rev1 COPY
   command, this SHOULD be the internal date and time of the source
   message.  In the case of messages delivered by the IMAP4rev1
   APPEND command, this SHOULD be the date and time as specified in
   the APPEND command description.  All other cases are
   implementation defined.
http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3501#section-6.3.11
      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.
http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3501#section-6.4.7
      The COPY command copies the specified message(s) to the end of the
      specified destination mailbox.  The flags and internal date of the
      message(s) SHOULD be preserved, and the Recent flag SHOULD be set,
      in the copy.

How bout "realulimateimapsyncpower"?  That's probably not used. :)
