Great. |patch for myself and share it upstream because that's the Slackware |way :) | |tm_gmtoff seems like the easiest way. If you're interested in |portability, the only *portable* way of finding the offset from UTC |that I've found is: | | struct tm l,g; | g = *gmtime(&t); | l = *localtime(&t); | |and work out the difference between g and l by checking the members |(e.g. normalizing to either number of minutes) with something like: | | diff = (l->tm_sec-g->tm_sec)/60 | +(l->tm_min-g->tm_min) | +(l->tm_hour-g->tm_hour)*60 | /* + compensate for day/month/year difference */ | |I'm happy to put some code together if you want. Or test a patch, if you |prefer. That day-of-year / dateborder approach as is used by all other MUAs was a great hint, thank you, Andrea! Yes i did it like that as a fallback if tm_gmtoff is not available, and from some testing it works fine. Thanks again for this report, and also the hint. Let's see whether i can release this week.
