Normally, the outgoing MTA will set a Date: header in the outgoing message, but it seems preferable to copy the Date: header from the original post.

I can't tell if that's what you're asking for, but there are only two options that make sense: copy the original Date: or set the current Date:. Unless there is argument to the contrary, I'll go for copying the original.
