I made changes in the trunk so that Gnus adds the Date header
when saving a draft message by default. The Date header made
then is unchanged when sending the draft with no modification.
This meets RFC2822, the section 3.6.1:
3.6.1. The origination date field
[...]
The origination date specifies the date and time at which the creator
of the message indicated that the message was complete and ready to
enter the mail delivery system. For instance, this might be the time
that a user pushes the "send" or "submit" button in an application
program. In any case, it is specifically not intended to convey the
time that the message is actually transported, but rather the time at
which the human or other creator of the message has put the message
into its final form, ready for transport. (For example, a portable
computer user who is not connected to a network might queue a message
for delivery. The origination date is intended to contain the date
and time that the user queued the message, not the time when the user
connected to the network to send the message.)
