Default How do I change the date of an e-mail?

Hello.
I am writing from France, using OE and having a problem I
never encountered before, i.e.:
A few days ago, some company sent me several e-mails which
appear to have been sent last January. Of course I tried the
usual thing: save as on the desktop, edit the source, change
the falty date, save, drag and drop back into OE.
But the problem is, everything regarding the date in the
source of each mail is correct! Whether it reads "17 Jun
2008" or "Tuesday 17 June 2008, 12:34", nowhere is "Jan" nor
"January" to be found. And still, those mails appear in OE
as if they were sent in January, which is messing with my
tidy archives. /:-
This is really puzzling me, and I couldn't find any help
from French forums, so here I came.
Thanks for any hint and clue--and/or solution.

I've answered your thread in microsoft.public.outlookexpress.general.
Separate posts in multiple newsgroups is not necessary.

The problem is that the sender did not properly format the DATE header.

You sure have!

As I wrote on top of my first post in the other group:

Thanks again.
