   Hey Wilfred!   
      
    WvV> As I'm not sure any software actually uses the TZUTC flag it   
    WvV> would be better, although it's not a fidonet standard afaik...   
      
   I was aware of people working on using TZUTC but have yet to see it in   
   action.  While we're at it, I believe the RFC-3339 flag goes a long way   
   towards fixing both past (eg obsolete two digit year in electronic messaging   
   aka email) and future issues (Y2038 bug).  Also the totally numeric output   
   makes it far more universal than any other datetime stamp with alpha   
   charaters.  Also, also great for sorting.   
      
    WvV> although it's not a fidonet standard afaik   
      
   Understood.  Perhaps it could be given a MSG2 or MSG+ format.  It wouldn't   
   hurt my feelings any to see the current MSG header's datetime stamp get the   
   heave-ho that should have happened way back in 2002 if not sooner than that.   
      
   Life is good,   
   Maurice
