It should be safe. All my mail servers run GMT to prevent log

Be very, very careful.
$ export TZ=right/GMT
$ date -r $((915148821 )) +%Y%m%d
19981231
$ date -r $((915148821-86400)) +%Y%m%d
19981231
There is probably a Perl module around that can handle this sort of
calculation in a more robust manner.
