As long as the mailer itself outputs a legal date field, I see no reason why it has to be so picky about what it takes in. To do this, you merely have to comment/ifdef the date checking code out (two segments must be removed: (1) the template defines along with the templates themselves and the two following routines and (2) a (I think 3-line) segment of code near the beginning which calls the date checking routine. If you remove this, Mail won't care about date field structure, so full names will be ignored.
