If assume that this is the problem, is there a way to specific timezone in (X)Emacs? 8 hours is way off... I want to change timezone to at least somewhere near California... Also worth notice is that the problem didn't happen in rgnus-0.66. Did any timezone related stuff in GNUS (message.el, parse-time.el, etc...) get changed from then to now? -- ^..^ '/..\" ( oo ) )~ m( oo )m ,, ,, /=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-==-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=\ | Danny Dick-Fung Siu http://www-leland.stanford.edu/~dsiu | | Reference System Group http://www.csua.berkeley.edu/~dsiu | | Adobe Systems Incorporated E-Mail: | | "What do you expect from a | | Cal.
