SmarterMail build 9049 and earlier: Timestamp of mails retrieved by POP and IMAP isn't original received timestamp

Problem reported by Stefan Mössner - 10/16/2024 at 10:48 PM

Hi all,

when retrieving mails by POP and IMAP the mails get the timestamp of the retrieval instead of the original received timestamp of the mail.

This happens with SmarterMail build 9049 but I saw this behavior also with earlier builds 90xx.

Kind Regards

I did some testing with my 9049 and didn't detect this problem.

The time of the recovered message is correct.

Tried with

Emclient and imap

Samsung Email App (Android)

I'm using webmail of SmarterMail only. I had an issue today with retrieving the mails by POP from my external mail provider. After restarting the mail server service the mails were retrieved but got the timestamp of the retrieval and not the timestamp of the original received moment. There ware mails I received originally yesterday or by night and all showed the timestamp of the retrieval in webmail.

The same behavior I see, when I retrieve mails by IMAP.
