Subject: [sup-devel] [PATCH] mbox: fix date format
Date: Thu, 8 Jul 2010 12:28:07 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1278592087-614-1-git-send-email-sascha-pgp@silbe.org> (raw)
The date format used in all (known/common) variations is that of Unix/POSIX
asctime(), not the RFC 822 / RFC 2822 Date: header format.
Using an incorrect date format causes at least mutt, mb2md and Python
UnixMailbox (but not PortableUnixMailbox) to either reject the mailbox or show
it as empty.
