REST Interface - imported mails do not have correct timestamp

[dandus]

I have tried to import .eml files using the REST interface (example as follows)

omain.com:password --upload-file /opt/zimbra/test/A http://server//home/user@domain.com/inbox

It works except that the "received" timestamp show the import time rather that the actual time in the mail. Is there any trick that the timestamp can be set to the actual date-time when the mails were first received?

I figured out that adding the X-Zimbra-Received to the mail headers in the eml file will fix the problem.

I used the following sed to add the X-Zimbra-Received. It replicates the Date line in the message and replace the Date with X-Zimbra-Received.

sed 's/\(^Date\:\)\(.*\)/X-Zimbra-Received\:\2\n\1\2/' <infile> > <newfile>
