Correct syntax is  h.date < "$c.date$"
c.date (current date) is a variable and must be delimited by $. The
current system date is substituted for c.date variable each time the
variable is encountered.

 ICSL does not do arithmetic. You can only do boolean string comparisons.
The best you can do with a filter is check if message date is less than
current date. Something else you could try on an incoming message filter
is checking if header date is different from received date.

!h.Received="$h.date$"
