I beg to differ. As a little test, it would be interesting to see how many of 
the mail-clients we use are able to parse the Date:-header in this message, 
which as far as I can tell is perfectly legal according to RFC2822.

Somewhere along the way, the header was replaced with something more clean, 
which is a good indication of that not everyone manages to parse legal 
RFC2822-headers.
Here is the header I tried to send, with [SPACE] to explicitly mark a 
whitespace, [CRLF] to mark linefeeds and [EOL] to mark end of header:

Date: (Mon, (29)30 Feb 2004 \30:00\) THU (Wed, 28 Feb 2004 13:00) Friday \(Sat) 29 
(=?iso-8859-15?Q?Feb?= ("or Mar")"?) Apr[CRLF]
[SPACE]2004 17:[CRLF]
[SPACE](62)10:(:(:)\):)30 (Oslo, Norway) +2560[EOL]
