The time in the message header is in whatever time zone was put there by the user or the user's MUA. The timezone in the archives is always server local time, but both should actually be the same time. For example the Date: header in your post to which I'm replying is Date: Mon, 17 Jul 2006 15:25:13 +0530 and the timestamp in the pipermail archive is Mon Jul 17 11:55:13 CEST 2006 Since CEST is +0200, these are both the same time. >Is it because of the timezone set by the user or there is some >bug in mailman? It's the user's timezone. >I ran through this list archives and found out that >there are archives for dates which are far in the future. Is this a >bug or what? Those are very old posts that had wildly out of range dates. This issue is addressed in current Mailman via the settings ARCHIVER_CLOBBER_DATE_POLICY and ARCHIVER_ALLOWABLE_SANE_DATE_SKEW. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
