New submission from Dmitry Shachnev: The value of time.timezone may be wrong sometimes (see http://bugs.python.org/issue22752), so I think the email library should not use it:
$ python3 -c "from email.utils import formatdate; print(formatdate(localtime=True))" Mon, 24 Nov 2014 19:16:32 +0400 $ date -R Mon, 24 Nov 2014 19:16:32 +0300 Using something from datetime module may be a better solution. ---------- components: Library (Lib) messages: 231608 nosy: belopolsky, mitya57 priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: email.utils.formatdate uses unreliable time.timezone constant versions: Python 3.4 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue22932> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
