Sender's time zone in attribution?
I'd like to have an attribution (the line above quoted text in
replies) that looks like this:
'On Mon, 30 Jun 2008, 21:12 EDT, Firstname Lastname wrote:'
where "EDT" would always be the alphabetic time zone abbreviation of
the sender's time zone.
If I do:
set date_format="%a, %d %b %Y, %H:%M %Z"
and
set attribution="On %d, %n wrote:"
I get:
On Mon, 30 Jun 2008, 22:23 +0200, Firstname Lastname wrote:
that is, the offset from UTC.
If I use
set attribution="On %d, %n wrote:"
I get the desired alphabetic abbreviation, but the time and time zone
(not surprisingly) of my own location.
Is there any way to get %Z to expand to the alphabetic abbreviation of
the sender's time zone?
All this is on Xubuntu Gutsy, if that matters.
