I wanted to switch to MM as of the new year but I did not manage to
actually get going until a week later. I just tried to import mails
sent in the previous mail program, so I have all mails sent out this
year in MM, but had to delete them all. The mbox file has the correct
dates for all messages, but the imported messages have the date
received set to the import date and time, which makes them useless for
me, although I can see that logically it is when MM received them. Is
there a way to import messages and have MM place them properly in
time?
MailMate should only use the current date if it cannot find any date
information in the emails. I suspect something else might have added
headers to the messages. If I remember correctly then Gmail can do this
under certain circumstances (I cannot remember the details). You can
send me one of these emails off list (using “Message ▸ Forward as
Attachment”) and I'll review the headers.
