Robert indicated he's be fine with >that, and that might keep everyone happy (or at least less grumpy). I would like to respectfully remind people that, in my original request, I did not have the sender's time zone. I had the sender's employer's hosted-email-company's computer-configuration's time zone, which was UTC. I cannot have any expectation that the date stamps in the email header reflect anything immediately (that is, at a glance) useful to me -- it may not be the sender's time zone, it may not be the recipient's time zone. It's just a time stamp in (effectively) a random time zone. --hymie! http://lactose.homelinux.net/~hymie [email protected] _______________________________________________ Nmh-workers mailing list [email protected] https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/nmh-workers
