I have had reports from other customers about the same problem with the
dates.
I actually think it is something to do with the mail server software we are
using: SLMail at mail.corporate.co.nz.
If a test email is sent via our server (mail.corporate.co.nz) from an
Outlook Express client it comes back dated tomorrow. The same thing happens
from Outlook 2000, except if it is going through MS Exchange server. Maybe
Exchange is smarter at interpreting the time zones.
I couldn't find anything that resolved the problem after searching both MS
support and SLMail sites, so gave up knowing that we will be moving away
from SLMail in favour of a linux mail server soon.
If anyone else has any ideas I would appreciate it.
regards,
Steve.
