When i send files on my ftp server these files take the system date and they
loose the original date. I have seen that my client try to execute the MDTM
command that havs to change the date of the file and fix it like that on the
remote pc, but this command fails. I need that the files uploaded mantain th
e
original dates.
Can i do something on the server ?
Like ftp client i use Coreftp ?

That's the way it works.  Microsft's FTP server deosn't support MDTM
commands.

Conformant FTP servers don't support MDTM to change the mod-time of the file
,
and the MS FTP servers does support MDTM to check the mod-time of the file.

It's not safe to use MDTM for both purposes, and your FTP client should warn
you if you use that feature.
