wrong data after import from Mail.app

P

post

Morning.

In Mail.app I have moved the content of a .mac-INBOX into a local
mailbox. After that I have imported the messages of this new mailbox
using the import function of Entourage. Then in Entourage I have moved
the imported messages into the IMAP-INBOX shown in Entourage. But now
all the imported messages show as receive time the time when I moved
these messages in Mail.app from the INBOX into the local mailbox.

How can I fix this misbehaviour so that the messages are shown in the
correct order of receiving times corresponding to the informations in
the email headers?

TIA and kind regards. Friedrich Vosberg

Look on my 'scripts' web page for the script 'correct the date'. This may do
what you want for received messages. If not, please write back.
