aha! the last time mailmate was started was some days back in praha
or
roma. so mailmate uses an internal clock, not system, to convert to
local time for the user. probably not ideal for travelers.
Not an internal clock exactly, rather a timezone value that is copied
from the system timezone at launch and not rechecked. A problem easily
worked around by restarting MailMate, but certainly a bug. Technically,
it *may* be as simple as changing one system call at launch time from
defaultTimeZone() to localTimeZone().
