I believe this duplicate status is in error. I was aware of the 'wrong
date' bug when I posted this.

The 'wrong date' bug might be more accurately labelled the 'wrong time'
bug as Evolution opens the correct date, but does so either ahead or
behind a day because of a different implementation of time zone
handling.

By contrast this bug is reporting that Evolution is wholly disregarding
(presumably not understanding) the date and time given to it by gnome
clock, and so defaults to 'today'.

To clarify this I'll give two examples.

Wrong date bug example: I double click on Feburary 14, 2008 and
Evolution opens Feburary 13, 2008 because Evolution thinks it is in a
different time zone.

This bug: I double click on February 14, 2008 and Evolution opens August
8th, 2008, because the information passed to Evolution is not understood
at all so Evolution defaults to today's date.
