hi all!
I have an issue to discuss with you. Today while i was sending a mail to my friend, i due to some reason wanted that the date of the sent mail is 2 days older.
To achieve that i changed the date of my own PC and sent the mail again but when i checked the mail date from the sent box, it was still the right rate but not the older one
Do you know how to do that??
Time stamps in the Full Header are part of the security features of email, and may involve more than your own machine.
For your own use, you may be able to go through the tedious procedure of changing Full Header date/time, in order to get emails to appear in your own list of sent mail where you would wish.
But the recipient is dependent upon their own ISP and hop servers who keep and stamp time synchronized to the real world.
What you propose is similar to "spoofing" an email origin address.
It can be done, but it is most often done by scammers and spammers.
You may want to do that for your own reasons.
But WTT Forums doesn't want to go there with you.
End.
Email spoofing is the forgery of an email header so that the message appears to have originated from someone or somewhere other than the actual source.
E-mail spoofing is sending an e-mail to another person so that it appears that the e-mail was sent by someone else. It is becoming so common that you can no longer take for granted that the e-mail you are receiving is truly from the person identified as the sender.
Spoofing is a technique commonly used by spammers and scammers using phishing to hide the real origin of an email message. By changing certain properties of the email, such as the "From", "Return-Path" and "Reply-To" fields (which are found in the message header), these criminals can make the email appear to be from someone other than the actual sender.
