there was a time that MSO and OE didn't understand anything as a time offset
except EST/EDT, CST/CDT, MST/MDT, and PST/PDT where others had to have been
a numerical designation. This seems consistent with the 3 messages shown
here. the 2 that blow up have "GMT" in the Date line whereas the one that
works has -0500. Looks like a client issue to me here.

that IMail is involved with (it adds a "Received: " header, the one at the
top of the headers). But, I can't imagine what IMail could do to that
header (which appeared to be fine, in the samples that OE choked on) that
would cause OE to choke.

Received: headers, as far as I know. And, the format used to display the
time/date stamp in the "Received: " line varies quite a bit (apparently, the
standard format had to be changed since it wasn't Y2K compliant), and
probably at least 25% of all mail servers have times that aren't right (5-10
minutes off, incorrect time zones, etc.).
