Unfortunately it turns out the assumption is not valid: during summer
time I get dates like
Thu Oct 19 16:43:43 CEST 2006 [EMAIL PROTECTED]
where the four-letter timezone makes the date 29 characters.
Sorry, no time to prepare a patch and test it properly, because I'm not
actually using this code, only using it as a model for a script of my
own. In case it helps, here's the regular expression I'm currently
using in my perl script:
/^(... ... .\d .\d:\d\d:\d\d ...?. \d\d\d\d) (.*)/ || die;
my ($date, $author) = ($1, $2);
