E-mail set to delay delivery working correctly but displays wrong sent date/time when sent to a different exchange server within our domain
We are using Outlook 2003 SP3 with Exchange 2003 SP2. When we setup a delayed e-mail to be sent out from one user to another on the same exchange server the delivery date/time (shown in the receivers e-mail box) matches the delivery date/time from inside the e-mail. When we send the same e-mail to another user at one of our other three offices (each with their own exchange 2003 sp2 server) the delivery date/time (shown in the receivers e-mail box) does not match the delivery date/time from inside the e-mail. The date/time inside of the e-mail is set to the time the e-mail was created, not the date/time it was delivered. Note, that the e-mail is being delivered to everyone it should and at the correct delayed time, just not displaying it correctly inside the e-mail in certain cases. I have tested this to and from all offices and it is consistent. Is there a way to correct this or is this just one of those known bugs with Outlook/Exchange 2003?

Small update, further testing shows that even to individuals and groups on the same server the date/time is not consistent after all, in fact, after retesting this I am unable to reproduce a single e-mail where the date/time inside the e-mail is the sent time unlike my testing on Friday, although I am testing to/from different accounts than I used then. Also we are not using cached mode at all. Any idea why the e-mail would not show the sent date/time inside the e-mail consistently?
