How to display the actual date a message has been received (in POP) onto the local client ?

Hi,

when receiving onto the local client a mail from a POP account, TB stores it with a first line (almost a "header") stating actual date message has been physically received locally. This "header" (first line on the "show source") looks like 

  From - Mon Dec  3 12:59:08 2018

But this date cannot be displayed in any column in the GUI.

The only available column dates are columns Date and "Reçu" (in french... I guess "Received" in english ?), which respectively are taken from header Date: and from first encountered header Received:

First one corresponds to sending date, and the second corresponds to receiving date ON THE SERVER... not receiving date on the local client....

Is there any parameter to set in config editor, or known extension, to either - have the "Reçu" column based on date as in first "From - ... " line - or have a new column available based on this date ?

Thanks in advance

There is a way to show the correct Received date for IMAP accounts, but I don't know how this could be applied to POP accounts, especially since the 'arrival time' depends on the user-set polling interval.

Thank you for answering, even if I already knew the thread you mention, which does not give any clue to my own question.

And let me add that user-set polling interval is NOT the main factor (it would be if automatic polling were set-up 24/7 which is not the case in my own situation), but actually when I launch mail retrieval. And sometimes I retrieve my mails several times a day, but sometimes I remain several days without retrieving them.

And the goal of my question is to be able to manage - not when the mail has been sent, - not when it has been received on the server, - but rather when I personnally got it.
