How have you added the mails to the mailbox? Dovecot can't handle that kind of a timestamp.
Interesting... The dovecot 0.99 I was using was packaged with Mandriva. Is it possible that they added support for that time stamp themselves? My mailbox files get generated one of three ways: thunderbird, fetchmail, and postfix. I used thunderbird to convert my Outlook files to mbox files, and thats the one that I sent. Here is a sample timestamp from postfix:
It worked with 0.99 only because Dovecot didn't check errors as well as 1.0 does. So it just parsed those timestamps as being invalid, and set the received-time of mails wrong.
I suppose I could add support for it..
Unless you know of a conversion utility, I think that would be a good idea. I don't want to edit thousands of emails for multiple users manually in order to use dovecot.
Dovecot's current CVS version supports that timestamp format.
Okay. Thanks. I will try getting the CVS version.
