%ODate and %OTime are working fine, it is just that %ODate has been used in a
way that links it (the date in your timezone) with the time in the sender's
timezone.
The bit that says "Historians believe that on %ODATE%-" sets the text up with
the date in your timezone. The next bit parses the headers for the time in the
sender's timezone. As you have noted, this will give an incorrect result at
times.
Here is a similar QT that I use:
---- [ ]
%WRAPPED='%SETPATTREGEXP="(?m-s)^Date:\s*(((.*?),.*?[\d]{4})\s*([\d]{0,2}:%-
[\d]{0,2}:[\d]{0,2})\s*(.*))"%-
%REGEXPBLINDMATCH="%HEADERS"%-
On %SUBPATT="2", at %SUBPATT="4" [GMT%SUBPATT="5"] %-
(which was %-
%IF:_%SUBPATT="3"_<>_%ODate="ddd"_%-
:_%ODate="ddd, hh:mm:ss"_%-
:_%ODate="hh:mm:ss"_ where I live) you wrote:'
----
This one puts the message creation date and time in the sender's timezone,
then puts in your time, preceded by your day if it differ's from the sender's.
If you want the bit about historians belive, change
On %SUBPATT="2"
to
Historians belive that on %SUBPATT="2"
