I think I found a bug in dovecot which I'm not sure where to fix. (I may even have found a reference to it in an archived list message from Jul 2003.) Here is the situation: dovecot (dovecot-0.99.10.4) running with an imap server on an mbox system is queried by a local client program, like Mail.app, and is told the "Received" date of the message (presumably sent through INTERNALDATE), however, that date is being passed on in GMT (-0000) instead of the server or client's local time zone (EST -0500, in this case). Maybe it's assumed that the local client will convert this time to the local zone, but no clients I know actually do that. Anyone know how/where to fix this? Thanks! - Payton - payton at repligen.com
This is the beginning of the thread which seems to also note this bug. Was anything ever resolved here? http://dovecot.procontrol.fi/list/dovecot/2003-July/001906.html Quoting Payton <payton at repligen.com>:> I think I found a bug in dovecot which I'm not sure where to fix.
