We use PHP's str2time() to parse the date into a timestamp. If the 
date isn't displayed on the mailbox page, str2time() can't handle that 
format.

I have one without a date field now and it behaves in IMP the same way 
it does in Thunderbird, "Unknown Date".  Here is a sample header:

From your own mail server I get Unknown Date in the Inbox view for 
the following header:

There are two situations where I have seen dates not be rendered 
correctly in Horde and Thunderbird.  In Thunderbird if the source 
mailserver fails to include the date field in the header entirely 
Thunderbird fails to show a date, since I didn't have one like that 
currently on my mail server I cannot say whether Horde will handle 
that correctly or not (typically using the arrival date and time as MS 
does), the second problem, and the one I am pointing out above, 
definitely applies to IMP and appears to stem from the fact the date 
field of the header leads with the day of the week vice the day of the 
month.  Obviously, neither of these issues prevents Horde or IMP from 
functioning but it certainly is annoying, especially when your default 
inbox view sorts on date.
