DATE_SPAMWARE_Y2K explanation please

Hi all,

I just had a message tagged with DATE_SPAMWARE_Y2K ("Date header uses 
unusual Y2K formatting").

I have compared its Date: header with untagged Date: headers, and I can't 
see any apparently meaningful difference!

e.g. The first one is the tagged one, the others were untagged:
Date: Wed, 11 Feb 2004 17:29:49 -0500 (EST)
Date: Thu, 12 Feb 2004 04:53:18 +0000
Date: Wed, 11 Feb 2004 16:35:29 -0800 (PST)

What exactly is DATE_SPAMWARE_Y2K referring to, and what triggers it?

Thanks,
Ted
