If you access to .forward style processing on the delivery host (a
relatively uncommon case, but perhaps less so among notmuch users) then
adding time of delivery could be done by piping messages through
formail -a $(date -R)
formail is part of procmail; if that is not available the functionality
could probably be replaced by a short python script, which would likely
be more robust than a sed pipeline.
