If neither header is present, $stamp is undef, so you get a warning on
'$stamp > 0'.

OK, thanks. I have forwarded this to the upstream bug report (still at
http://rt.cpan.org/NoAuth/Bug.html?id=15900 ).

I also mentioned the possibilities of bailing out or using the current
time in the upstream bug report, along with a few other ideas for a
timestamp source.
I'm closing this Debian bug now, since the main problem ('complains for
mails...') is fixed. Please feel free to reopen it if you think
guessTimestamp() returning undef in this case is unacceptable/'not working'.
Cheers,
