Scratch the part about not getting TIME values. I will always get TIME
values,  however,  when  the  Created  and  Received  DATE  fields are
missing, the TIME left-justifies and I end up sorting *some* on actual
date and *some* on TIME.

For those without a date, they are from today. They will have a date
tomorrow.

No, they are correctly treated with today's date. Only the date is not
displayed, so today's mails are easier to spot.

MA May  I ask why this is done and how I should sort *if* the actual date
MA is missing and replaced with the TIME?

It is not missing. It is just not displayed. All sorting by received
or created date/time still works perfectly.

MA Are you serious?

MA So: any transactions that are made *same* day are treated w/o a
MA date and *just* the time?

Of course they *have* a date. It's just not displayed in the message
list to make it clear which messages are today's.

MA May I ask why this is done and how I should sort *if* the actual
MA date is missing and replaced with the TIME?

The date is *not* missing and is used in the sort. It is simply not
visible.

I guess a little RTFM would help then. (lol)

Are you serious?

If there isn't time/date in the mail header, then you should sort your
mails by Received time. I recommend this anyway, as you'll get all
mail sorted correctly this way (announcements from my ISP have for
some reason set the year to 2030 :)

Except if you switched to The Bat! from Pegasus - all of my archived
messages are received on July 1st, 2001 01:59.

Perhaps  imported  messages  should  have  their  Received date set to
max(today,  created-date).  This  way  all  future messages would be
truncated to today, and the rest would be sorted properly.

That shoud be, of course, min(today, created-date). Sorry for the
mistake.
