Greetings,

I just recently purchased the N800, upgraded it to OS2008, and installed Claws e-mail with IMAP protocol. Mostly, it is working fine; folders are sync'ing, I can send and read e-mail, etc. However, I'm having a bizarre problem with the dates on many of the e-mails that are downloaded from my e-mail server. There seems to be two formats. The "good" e-mails have a date format yy/mm/dd; these e-mails are in the latter part of each folder and are properly sorted from oldest to newest. The "bad" e-mails have a date format dd-xxx-yyyy, e.g. 10-Jan-2008. These e-mails appear in the front half of each folder and in completely random order (they are not sorted by date or author or subject or anything ). I have yet to see any pattern as to why some e-mails are "good" and some are "bad". It's not related to author, intranet vs Internet mail, age of e-mail. On the server, I don't have this issue. On the N800, I can open and read either type without a problem except of course that it takes me forever to locate a new e-mail if it came across as "bad" and is buried somewhere in the folder.

Has anyone had any similar experience that might shed some light as to why this is happening and what needs to be done? Appreciate any thoughts on the subject.

Thanks,

Alassiel
