Dates incorrect when importing from Eudora

Question

When importing mailboxes from Eudora, it seems that the emails I have received all have their dates correct in Mail, but all the emails that I sent have their dates set to the date the import was done. Is there any way to avoid this?
Thanks,
John Link

Hi there,
Thanks for the response.  Playing with the date/time format on the camera doesn't make a difference.  Nor does changing the way the MacBook keps track of date/time information.  Tried both those things and wound up with the same result as before (ie. seemingly randomized folder dates).  In the PE organizer, the date view looks fine and everything comes out organized properly.  It's just purely the folders themselves that appear to have the problem.
It does seem as though the problem lies somewhere in the actual interaction between camera and computer (since it's really only in the Finder view that this is a problem).  At present I've just stopped asking Elements to create subfolders since the bulk of my organizational stuff is done through tags and albums applied in the organizer anyway.  So it's not a big deal.  Just odd.
