Received date not correct

C

Chris Barnes

Ok, this is really weird. I have a secretary, using Office 2002. Not
using Exchange (only Pop3 and Imap, she has multiple accounts).

On the Imap account, she has the messages sorted by the Received date.

However, for the life of me, I cannot figure out where OL is getting
that time - it is NOT in the headers of the message. For example, when
a message comes in, it might say it was received at 3:58pm. But when I
look at the headers, not just the 'normal headers', but the complete set
of headers including all of the Received: lines, that time is nowhere to
be found. Often, not even close (off by hours).

When she double clicks on the message and reads it (she has preview
turned off), the message "jumps" in the folder index because the time
stamp used in the Received column changes (it *then* uses the time in
the last Received: line in the header).

And yes, the time on both her PC and the IMAP server are correct.

Reposting because I didn't even get a "you're out of your mind, OL
doesn't do that" response...
