hi, now that we've rolled over 1000000000 seconds a bug in the pine
maildir module has cropped up. the patch below fixes it. i've also got a
full SRPM which should work on redhat 6.x and 7.x (although you'll need to
rebuild it for 7.x).

i'm not on the qmail list, cc me if you want me to see any reply.
