You've already run tai64nlocal on your log file. tai64nfrac doesn't
expect that (because I don't do that; I just run tai64nlocal when I need
to, since it's fast enough).

No, that's just documentation of what the epoch is. tai64nfrac does
produce the output you're expecting.

qmail-analog expects seconds and fractional seconds since epoch. For
documentation of TAI64, TAI64N, and related subjects, see
