Sup uses Time.parse, which is supposed to take into account the
timezone, assuming the date is in proper rfc822 format. I haven't spent
any time on this than the bare minimum to get it working, though, so I'm
not terribly surprised it's doing something wrong.
What it should do is convert everything to the local timezone, and never
display any date that isn't in the local timezone. (Except when viewing
the raw headers, of course).
I've added this to the TODO, tentatively for 0.3.
