If anyone in the future is interested in the code for this, here's what I
did that works for me. This goes in all three places that mail_get_date() is
used in the code:

That's not *quite* what I meant. ARRIVAL is "when did this mail get
here", while DATE is supposed to be "when was this mail sent". My
thought here is that "when was this mail sent" can be approximated
