| FAQ for imapsync |

Q. We have found that the sent time and date have been changed to the time at which the file was synchronised.
R. I guess this is the case with Eudora but not with Mutt, no ?
Eurora shows by default the time the imap server received the email.
I think it is quite a strong behavior since the messages can
have travelled some time before the reception.
The sent time and date are given by the "Date:" header
and it is set most of the time by the MUA (Mail User Agent,
Mutt, Eudora, Thunderbird etc.).
imapsync does not touch any header since the
header is used to identify the messages in
both parts.
Solutions: a) Don't use buggy Eudora
b) Use the --syncinternaldates option and keep using Eudora :-)
