Because when I regenerated the archives, it was set to use the dates
from the sender's headers (i.e. the 'Date' header) as the true date.
Unfortunately, this leads to erroneous dates if the sender's computer
was misconfigured. The other option is to ignore the Date header and
instead use the envelope date. But I wasn't sure how to effect this
when regenerating Mailman archives.
