User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Fedora; Linux x86_64; rv:66.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/66.0

Steps to reproduce:

Fedora 29
$ rpm -qa thunderbird
thunderbird-60.6.1-1.fc29.x86_64

Right click on a folder, select Properties, click on Repair Folder

The result shows all messages with the current time that you pressed the repair button. See the screen shot

Do the messages in this folder have a Date: header line?

Hi Wayne,

Well, I was having a problem in that the search term in Quick Search now stays active no matter what folder I am in. Once I figure that out and cleared the search term and restarted, I can not reproduce this issue. Go figure. If it comes back and I can reproduce it, I will get back. But for now, lets chalk it up to bad luck.

I have this problem on Thunderbird 102.1.2, macOS 12.5.1 (IMAP)
Because the size of a subfolder had grown enormous, I did a Repair folder. Out of 147 emails, 48 emails changed date to time of this repair. I closed Thunderbird and deleted the .msf file of this subfolder; now the date of these 48 emails is that of when I now restarted Thunderbird and selected the subfolder.

Note that the date of the emails has not changed when using the Apple Mail app.
