I noticed that, when replying to an e-mail, the attribution uses the
date from (what it seems) the Received: header in stead of the Date:
header.  Why?

Do you use the %() format in your attribution?

  %(fmt)  the local date and time when the message was received.
          ``fmt'' is expanded by the library function ``strftime'';
          a leading bang disables locales

Try %{}.

This doesn't really help -- my question pertains to the date the
message was sent (this is how I interpret the Date:) header.

I suppose I did answer your question, which was why your attribution
uses the timestamp on which the message was received, rather than the
timestamp in the Date: header of the message.

The value in the Date: header is set by the sender (the %{} format) and
it's different from the time at which the message was received (the %()
format). So I asked if you were using the %() format in your
attribution.

Show us what you have in your "attribution". You seem to have modified
the default.
