I've think I've fixed this in master. Thanks for your log; that was
helpful. The problem was that Sup was producing the date component of
the From_ lines in the sent mail mbox using the current locale, and
later on wouldn't necessarily recognize that as a date. (Particularly
for people with "funny locales".)
You will have to manually edit your ~/.sup/sent.mbox file and change all
the From_ line dates that are not in UTC to UTC. If there are just a
couple, you should be able to copy and paste from the Date: header a few
lines below.
Removing the Time.parse line you mention will work, but it has the side
effect of potentially splitting mbox files in mid-message. E.g. if you
ever have a line of text like "From xxx yyy\n", Sup will consider that
a message delimiter. This is fallout from the great mbox From_ line
misdesign of 1972.
Please let me know if it works for you.
