All mails sent by Web-CAT are missing the origination-date header field required by RFC 2282.

It normally looks like this: (Date: Mon, 3 Jan 2011 14:46:51 +0200)

Because of the missing field, e-mail readers cannot sort the messages, or might even fill in a date when the reader fetched the message - For this reason all my webcat messages have the same date in Thunderbird. (which is very annoying)

Please note that RFC 4409 Allows Mail servers to add the Date field if it is missing, so the bug might not be reproducible on your mail server.

    Fixed in CVS HEAD, will come out in the next update of the Core subsystem.
