If the OP corrects the date will he then be able to import the messages?
Yes if they follow the advice already given in an earlier reply.
Why do you ask?

If they follow the advice already given in an earlier reply **without
correcting the date** will he then be able to import the messages?
I asked because I don't see how the date relates to the problem.

The two issues are mostly unrelated, although having the wrong

I think it behooves us as responders to notify the OP of any
obvious problem, even if unrelated to the OP's question.
