''Timestamp'' is a [[Sieve]] test, implemented as a loadable extension. ==Syntax== timestamp [:before / :after] <''header-name'': string> <''date'': datestring> The ''timestamp'' test compares the value of a structured date header field with the given date. If the tagged argument is <tt>:after</tt>. and the date from the header is after the specified date the result is <tt>True</tt>, otherwise, if the header date is before the given date, the result is <tt>False</tt>. If the tagged argument is <tt>:before</tt> and the date from the header is before the specified date the result is <tt>True</tt>, otherwise, if the header date is after the given date, the result is <tt>False</tt>. If no tagged argument is supplied, <tt>:after</tt> is assumed. Almost any date format is understood. ==Example== <source lang="C"> request "test-timestamp"; if timestamp :before "X-Expire-Timestamp" "now - 5 days" { discard; } </source> This program will discard the messages, if it contains a <tt>X-Expire-Timestamp</tt> whose value is a date more than 5 days older than the current date.
