Does the spec allow timestamping of notes that is not 'now'?

Would be cool to have 'publish date' and 'note date' for this import use case.

Depends on the relay I would say. A client can put any timestamp on a note, that's why we had some fun bugs a month ago with sticky posts from the future.

Some relays have a limit on how old of an event they will accept. Strfry for example uses this default (3 years).

rejectEventsOlderThanSeconds = 94608000

Some relay operators will make this more strict to protect disk space/query speed from being dragged down by very old events that (almost) nobody is accessing.

Archive relay will be required then.
