Dear Andrey

There are a number of things to consider here - the server (qmail) side and 
your client (MUA) side:

* qmail uses a more intelligent system of time stamping emails which pass 
through its system using GMT time which it (correctly) represents as (in 
your case) 06:57:47 -0000 this says that at the time the message was 
processed by qmail the *GMT* time was - 06:57. This is used by qmail because 
it makes it more consistent regarding time values as messages are sent 
around the world.
* Not sure on the time zone in Russia but if you want to check on your 
machine running qmail (if you are looking after that machine) run the 
command "date" note down the *local* time and the time zone it says which 
will be in your case (if we take 06:57:47 as the example) 10:57:47 and your 
local time time information. Then run command "TZ=GMT date" and note what 
time your server thinks is GMT. If the difference is correct for your time 
zone in Russia then your server, and therefore qmail, should be setup 
correctly for timezones.
* Now the bad news may be that your client MUA email software does not/may 
not like working with the Received: field in the GMT -0000 format with which 
qmail stamps it and it may not stamp emails with a Date: field which means 
that unfortunately (I believe I am not sure on this point) that as Robin & 
Frank say you have a problem.

Does your client MUA email software stamp messages with a Date: field 
something like this - Date: Tue, 15 May 2001 11:02:03 +0200 - ?

Regards

Patrick
