New Emails dated 2001 through 2005?

Post by ramstein »

Has anyone else been all of a sudden been getting new spam email, but it dates the receive date way back in time, so you have to go up and scroll to find it so it isnt labeled "unread mail"????

its getting really annoying. :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

I don't think this is new, i've been recieving e-mails like this for the last couple of years... Anyway, i've simply added a filter to move all incoming e-mails with a suspicious date...

That's odd. I've never received any like that until recently.

It's actually pretty simple. set the time on your server for minus x hours (Or plus x hours) and send some emails to your self.

Or just set the date header as the time you want ;)

Code: Select all

$headers .= "Date: ". date('r', strtotime('20050601')) ."\r\n";
