/var/spool/qmailscan/qmail-queue.log contains records which use an ambiguous
date-format (dd/mm/yyyy - which much of the time can be confused with mm/dd/yyyy).

Can you please change this to yyyy-mm-dd? This has the added advantage of
producing records which can be merged and sorted with other log messages such as
those resulting from qmail itself (tai64nlocal < /var/log/qmail/current).

It's already a major nuisance having to post-process syslog records for the same
exercise.

For the record, here's what I've done:
*** qmail-scanner-queue.template        Tue Oct 15 08:34:04 2002
--- qmail-scanner-queue.template-mine   Fri Nov  1 20:24:44 2002
***************
*** 299 ****
! my $nowtime = sprintf "%02d/%02d/%02d %02d:%02d:%02d", $mday, $mon+1, $year+1900, $hour, $min, $sec;
--- 299 ----
! my $nowtime = sprintf "%04d-%02d-%02d %02d:%02d:%02d", $year+1900, $mon+1, $mday, $hour, $min, $sec;
***************
*** 413 ****
! $nowtime = sprintf "%02d/%02d/%02d %02d:%02d:%02d", $mday, $mon+1, $year+1900, $hour, $min, $sec;
--- 413 ----
! $nowtime = sprintf "%04d-%02d-%02d %02d:%02d:%02d", $year+1900, $mon+1, $mday, $hour, $min, $sec;
***************
*** 434 ****
!   $nowtime = sprintf "%02d/%02d/%02d %02d:%02d:%02d", $mday, $mon+1, $year+1900, $hour, $min, $sec;
--- 434 ----
!   $nowtime = sprintf "%04d-%02d-%02d %02d:%02d:%02d", $year+1900, $mon+1, $mday, $hour, $min, $sec;

Thanks for the great tool,
