how do you

wouldn't work anyways.
The Inbox has the Received column and the date/time there comes from
the mail server when it received the message. The date/time on the
sending computer is not used.
I just tested my method and your right about the "receive date" but the
"sent" date did indeed show 4/30/2009 as date sent. I clicked on the "sent"
column and my inbox is now sorted with the 2009 message on top. I sent
myself another normal email message and it is under the 2009 message in my
inbox.
So my 2009 test message is anchored at the top of my inbox as long as I'm
sorted by "sent".
I suspect the same thing would happen with OE as "received" is not available
as a column. Someone could post after changing their computer clock and
their message would be stuck at the top. In fact I've seen this happen and
it's very annoying.
If you want to have a message with a modified received date,
- Do a File, Save As to save a sample message to an *.EML file, or
drag-and-drop the message to Windows folder
- Then edit the file in Notepad or other text editor. In this case
change the date in the first (top most) "Received:" header
- Save the file.
- With OE5+, you can drag-and-drop the message back to an OE folder. .

Would this work... Change your computer clock to a few years in the
future. Send yourself an email. Change your computer clock back and
check your mail. Leave that message in your inbox and it should
remain at the top. I'm guessing you are concerned about
unintentionally displaying a message.
