Summary:                    INTERNALDATE reponses do not conform to RFC
Description: 
The SnapperMail IMAP client is extremely strict in its IMAP protocol
adherence, and requires that INTERNALDATE responses are formatted in
"dd-mmm-yyyy hh:mm:ss +zzzz" format as per the RFC.  DBmail always
responds without the " +zzzz" timezone.

fixed by doing the following:

instead of using array magic etc, the two date functions date_imap2sql()
and date_sql2imap() now use strptime() and strftime() to parse and format
the date & time. date_sql2imap() outputs the timezone information with the
date and time.

fix has been applied to HEAD, dbmail_2_0_branch. A patch has been prepared
for dbmail_1_2_branch.

The supplied fix sends a timezone in its INTERNALDATE response, but the
timezone is incorrect.  The timezone presented is daylight time, when
local time is not.

An example seen by an IMAP client follows:

0295 > * 53 FETCH (UID 1290296 FLAGS (\Seen \Answered \Recent) ENVELOPE
("Wed, 8 Sep 2004 17:29:45 +1000" "Email subject" (({12} NIL "email"
"domain.com")) (({12} NIL "email" "domain.com")) (({12} NIL "email"
"domain.com")) (({15} NIL "simon" "mailguard.com.au")) NIL NIL NIL
"<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>")
BODY[HEADER.FIELDS (REFERENCES)] {2} INTERNALDATE "08-Sep-2004 17:33:11
+1100" <snip>

The correct UTC offset for this location is +1000.  +1100 is our daylight
offset.

I have triple-checked the server's timezone settings, and they're correct.
 All other software on this machine reports correct time.  E.g.

# date -R
Wed,  8 Sep 2004 18:14:27 +1000

(I had a quick crack at fixing this myself.  My system documentation
doesn't show a tm_gmtoff member to struct tm, and I've never seen that
myself.  Could this be the culprit?)

Hmm.. I just checked. It works here (I get +0100, which is correct here).
So, you don't have tm_gmtoff in your tm struct. What system are you
running? tm_gmtoff is a BSD & GNU extension.
