Yes. Except for the 'TZUTC: 0000' kludge line which seems wrong for
Z4...
How could it be fixed? I use Fmail 1.60/DOS and did not find that option , thanks
FMail has nothing to do with it. It's your editors responsibility to
insert that into the message...
or more likely your BBS' responsibility depending on where and how one writes their messages...
TZUTC is/was generally set as an envoronment variable on systems and the BBS takes it from there... that's how it was done originally... the only problem was the need to reset it each time daylight saving came and went but that was easily handled, too... my system did it automatically via a tool that i wrote which was run each time the BBS/mailer recycled after a connection was terminated ;)
these days, with some newer software, TZUTC is handled internally which means more code the BBS has for handling time and timezones instead of using external speciality tools for the task...
