TB Email Sync to Gmail Account Results in Current Date on Old Emails.
I am moving email from one gmail account to another (for space concerns) using Thunderbird as my import/export tool. This worked well until today. All email imported to TB (using "google takeouts", imapi) works great. But when sync'd to my new gmail account, all old emails are showing the current date, rather than the actual dates. Please help me correct this new issue.

What did you expect? Generally the date shown is the date received on the mail server. The date received is whenever you added the mail to the account. IMAP is NOT a filling system. Despite many folk thinking it is at least something like that.
Matt, my process using TB sync to gmail has maintained the original email date for years. Only recently this problem started where most (not all) emails synchronized pick up the current date. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
I would start by checking the date information in the email header (ctrl+U) pre and post upload. If the header information has changed, your issue is one you need to discuss with Google. Regardless of what it did in the past.
Header date looks good when exported. In fact, it shows correctly when imported into TB. The problem only exists when TB syncs up with my (auxiliary) google account.
I want you to check the header "AFTER" the sync to the google account. It is only by doing so that what is happening can be determined.
Hi Matt, Interesting, the email header indicates the email date of 01/31/17, but the date shown on my Gmail inbox indicates 01/22/24. I just can't figure this out. I appreciate your help in troubleshooting this issue!

Hi Matt, Here's the header AFTER the sync to Gmail. The date in the Gmail UI is 1/26/24. The message header shows 1/9/17, but "Delivered after 222327696 seconds, which I believe this resetting the gmail UI date to 1/26/24. Is there any way to prevent this "delivery delay" from adding to the UI message date? I appreciate your help and thoughts.
