In retrospective, it doesn't make any sense to think that it would
work... I agree with you on that.

My only problem is that the time stamp mutt places on my emails
does not reflect at all actual time. Take for example this message:
it appears to have been written 8 hours before it was actually
written, and therefore if you check the mutt-users archives, it
appears to have been submitted hours before you wrote the message
I am now responding to. The messages are filed accordingly, and it
upsets the thread structure. It is specifically this type of thing
that I am trying to fix. I do not know what places the time
stamp on my outgoing emails. Whatever it is, I'd like to tell it
to do it in a way that reflects the actual time they were sent out.
