That's stupid Outlook thinking it knows how to fix my spelling.

That's stupid me, thinking I had imported that... ;)

Well, it seems that it's the call to parsedate that's returning None.
I'll check in a fix, since it's easy enough, but it's strange.  The date
header must not be in the correct (RFC822) format.

What's odd is that it's finding the INTERNALDATE, so it should be using
that, and not extractTime at all.  I'll look into this, but it might be
tomorrow before I get to it.

:)  I do test on the two imap servers I have - one is Courier and one is
Netmail.  Even with just these two there are notable differences.
