Package: fail2ban
Version: 0.8.6-3wheezy2

Hi,

It seems that fail2ban shipped with Debian Wheezy is affected by the same
bug as #686341 (http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=686341).

In Icedove (17.0.7-1~deb7u1) all emails sent by fail2ban are dated from
01/01/1970 01:00.

If you look the email source, the date field is correct (not 01/01/1970
01:00).

I checked fail2ban's jessie package to see how this bug is solved :
apparently you have to use "LC_TIME=C date -u" instead of "date -u" in
'sendmail.conf', 'sendmail-whois.conf' and 'sendmail-whois-lines.conf'.

For the time being, this solution seems to work.
Could this fix be included in a future update ?

Many thanks

Benoît
