[Pan-users] posted time anomaly

i normally have a good concept of time, and dont own a watch so its always bugged me that linux application time is so inconsistent and fixing it so vague.

pan seems to be no different.

irrespective of what timezone, utc or local (utc+13) the bios is set to, pan reports the time a message is posted as real local time then displays +1300 after it, which means i'm posting in the future.

whilst its easy enough to ignore with pan, its an embarrasment with evolution when mail is sent with the wrong time on it.

its difficult to justify linux to businesses when the computer has to be set up with a time that is wrong to get the applications to report it correctly.

then again this is all probably just another mandrake stuffup.
