OS X Mail to Entourage import received date wrong

[cricket]

Version: 2008 Operating System: Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard) Processor: Intel Email Client: pop Hi All

When I import from mbox files, Entourage sets the date for all files to today's date.

I can see from older posts the suggested workaround to use the 'sort by sent' option but is there any fix for this?

I've tried downloading a couple of scripts suggested but these don't appear to work on my platform.

Any suggestions? Are there any versions of Entourage which don't behave like this?

Thanks in advance.

That's correct.

No, the fix is to sort by sent.

No. All email clients worth this way AFAIK.
