[jira] [Updated] (MIME4J-262) Message built by MessageBuilder do not respect getDate() contract

["Luc DUZAN (JIRA)" <mi...@james.apache.org>]

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MIME4J-262?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Luc DUZAN updated MIME4J-262:
-----------------------------
    Description: 
Here is the getDate() documentation:
{quote}
    /**
     * Returns the value of the <i>Date</i> header field of this message as
     * <code>Date</code> object or <code>null</code> if it is not present.
     *
     * @return the date of this message.
     */
    Date getDate();
{quote}

Here is the builder code:
{quote}
    /**
     * Returns the value of the <i>Date</i> header field of this message as
     * <code>Date</code> object or <code>null</code> if it is not present.
     *
     * @return the date of this message.
     */
    Date getDate();
{quote}

We can see that MessageBuilder will make getDate() return a date and no null even if the message has no `Date` header
