The command 'date' produces: Mon May 29 10:40:26 GMT 2006 which is the correct local time - the problem being that "GMT" where there should be a "PST" The GMT stamp attaches to all my outgoing emails. I am in timezone PST and, by being stamped with timezone GMT, my emails appear to have been sent 8 hours before the actual time they were sent. I'd like to find a way to make the necessary corrections without installing the timezone package for my OS. With mutt's high configurability, there should be a way to tell it to affix all outgoing emails with time stamp PST, or at least to force the system to do that. I just don't know how, and would like to find out. C. Byspel
