Postfix adds the Message-Id: *AND* the Date: header when it moves the submission from the maildrop queue to the incoming queue. - The Date: header contains the time that the message was submitted to the maildrop queue (28 Nov 2009 03:15:01 -0700). - The Message-Id: header contains the time that the message was moved from maildrop queue to incoming queue. This is the same time as the "Received: by den1.thisserver.net" header (29 Nov 2009 03:15:58 -0700 which is MST, is identical to 20091129101558 which is in UTC). Please review my questions in my earlier follow-up response. I wrote most of Postfix, so I might have a clue. Is the mail queue on a file server, and is the clock drifted? Is the machine running MacOS? They have modified the way that Postfix picks up local submissions. Wietse
