SUMMARY
I received an email today that was grouped under "December 1969". The sorting selected for my inbox is "Date/Time". The email that was received apparently was missing the "Date: " part of the message header.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Receive an email with a bad or missing date.

EXPECTED RESULT
Some mail clients (like Thunderbird) seem to handle this sort of issue correctly. Perhaps Kmail should sort by date received in the event that the "Date: " part of the email header is missing.
