This means that your new server uses a different date format, which means that the edit date can not be calculated and so it reverts back to 30 october 1899, which is the date at which VBscript dates start at.

The dates for the edited time are stored as a string within the contents of the message rather than as a date field in the database.

Often the server with auto change the date when in different formats becuase of the way the date is stored, with the edited string sometimes it doesn't work.

You would need to change the locale settings on your server to match that of your old server.
