Is HTTP standard 'Date' header stripped from response when using Appengine's urlfetch?

[Youssef El Bied]

Hi,

I'm using Appengine's urlfetch (Python) to retrieve some data over the network.

For caching purposes, I need the HTTP standard 'Date' header to be found in the received response.

Unlike in dev environment, when I deploy my application in your remote servers, I don't receive this header anymore in the response.

Is this behavior excepted? Did I miss something?

Thanks in advance for your help,

Youssef
