Yes. So, to determine what the default should be, what date do various
backends use? I'm guessing a little:
nnml: File system's modtime of article?
nnmh: Same as nnml?
nnfolder: X-Gnus header data? Added when article saved in the nnfolder?
nnimap: Server-assigned date attached to each article.
(Which usually equals the date when the article was copied
into that mailbox.)
nndraft: never
