Recently, I have been making great use of the Mail::Sender module and noticed some issues with the dates that the emails end up displaying... It appears that when sending attachments, the date header of the email can get set way off from date on the machine it is sending from as well as the smtp server it is sending to. I have seen the date showing anywhere from 24-36 hours behind the actual time the email is sent. I have not seen this occur just for plain text emails. The work-around I came up with was to just create a date string and set the 'Date:' header when sending the email; it works, but the whole deal doesn't seem quite right. I was wondering if anyone else has experienced this and/or might know of how to correct it. I'm using version 0.7.10, the latest release. Thanx in advance!
