Bouncing Mail to Google from another Address (Timestamp issue)

On 3/10/06, gmail.com">neil.symonsgmail.com <gmail.com">neil.symonsgmail.com> wrote:

I have been bouncing mail from my old account to gmail to filter and
archive for better searching.

The way bouncing should work is that the entire message and header is
re-delivered to the new destination and preserving all the information.

However gmail displays only the arrival time to gmail as the timestamp
of the message which makes it hard to search/filter these messages..

Is there any experimental search procedures to allow me to filter for
archived email I bounced to gmail in sender date format?

Thanks in advance,

Neil

Actually, the original poster is correct. It timestamps at the time
the message is received by Gmail's MX servers, which has nothing to do
with the sender's machine.

Thats right!

It would be simply nice to have both timestamps available, or at least searchable. This help alot with filtering emails and archiving them under different labels.

Ian, I'm not sure what your "Sorry but they do not." is referring to.
Are you saying that I'm incorrect, or that Gmail doesn't offer the
feature asked for by Neil?

If the first (you're saying I'm wrong), you have to realize that
Gmail's FAQ is overly simplified from the actual process (read the
headers).

The actual message is stamped by Gmail's servers with the time of
arrival (backend servers). The web interface displays those times with
the offset based on the what the FAQ describes.

As I said, the Helps over-simplify the issue and only speak to how
things are displayed on the web interface.
