You want the date the mail was sent to your MTA? How is that different than the date it was received by your MTA?
No - this would be really the same then. :)
But let me clarify... ... each received header contains the date where a mail was taken from the previous host. I'll try to illustrate which date I'm after, so let's assume: SENDER -> RELAY X -> RELAY Y -> RELAY Z -> OUR MTA -> RECEIVER When I'm on |OUR MTA| then 'date_received' would point to the date where |OUR MTA| took the mail from |RELAY Z|. But my intention is to know the date when a mail was received by |RELAY Z| ( coming in from |RELAY Y| on |RELAY Z|). This is what I meant by 'previous hop' in my initial post.
