So You can remove it using header_checks:
/^Date:/ IGNORE
But BEWARE, this strips ALL Date: headers of ALL mails.

Removing headers loses information (that may help in debugging,
filtering, etc.).
Rewrite it instead. use header_checks for that:
/^(Date:.*)$/ REPLACE X-$1
That would rewrite the Date:... header to an X-Date:... header.
