Usage notes
- The SMTP Helper adds a "Date:" header to an Email object instance by default if you do not explicitly add one with AddHeader. If a Date header is present at the time the mail method is invoked, it is left intact. The Date header generated by the SMTP Helper uses the system clock (usually GMT), adjusted by the GMT offset specified in the OS system parameters.
