How's that? The Date: header on outgoing email is localized to the sender's locale?
That seems to be a clear-cut violation of RFC-822, and damaging to interoperability
(because I must know every possible localized month name to interpret the
header).
It would make *much* more sense to localize the Date: headers on incoming email.
