Yeah ... I was getting confused about which headers mailers generate, versus
which headers (some) newsreaders generate.  I've been working on trn4 lately,
and it leaves the Date: header generation task up to inews/whatever.

| NOT.  Mutt *IS* the problem.

And elm, apparently (at least the version that Tom's using).


| I don't have a bogus TZ: it's EST5EDT.

The TZ-offset is not part of your TZ string ...?
