-* fix-date.sh
+* fix_date.sh
+
+ WHAT IT DOES
+ Add a 'Date:' header to the selected email(s) when such header
+ is missing. The correct date is guessed from other headers
+ that contain timestamp information (preferred: Fetchinfo
+ header if found) or from the file or system date as a
+ fallback. The order or preference for the date value
+ replacement can be changed by editing the script.
+ This script can be used to fix messages that show non
+ RFC-compliant Date headers as well.
+ X-Original-Date is always added too if not already existing
+ (if so, it's left untouched), to keep track of the original
+ value if any.
+ An existing Date: header is not overwritten unless you use the
+ --force switch.
+ Non RFC-compliant dates can be overwritten using the --rfc
+ switch. Use --strict to use strict RFC matching patterns for
+ date values in other headers.
