      REPLY: 2:280/464 5fb00830       MSGID: 2:280/464.113 5fb0536c       CHRS: UTF-8 4       TZUTC: 0000       RFC-3339: 2020-11-14 22:00:12+0000       Hallo Wilfred!               MK>> UTC is correct for this node.               WvV> Is that node located in the 0 meridian timezone?              Nowhere near prime meridian but UTC is still the benchmark for syncing       networks. All the system's times here are still UTC which makes things vastly       easier for sorting and other pruposes such as scheduling network events and       the such.               WvV> I'm guessing it's not, so that wouldn't be correct...              It is correct. Saying otherwise would be wrong such as "TZUTC: 0000" instead       of "TZUTC: +0000". FTS-4008 is wrong, wrong, wrong and is the source of       corruption for those east of prime meridian. The RFC-3339 flag addresses this       particular major flaw in FTS-4008 and covers ALL the datetime issues including       the obsolete MSG datetime stamp.              So now that I've included TZUTC in all of the MSGs originating from here has       it made any difference there in any meaningful way?              Het leven is goed,       Maurice              ... ðone wisdom ðe ðe God sealde ðær ðær ðu hiene befæstan mæge,       befæste.        Wherever you can use the wisdom God gave you, use it.       --- GNU bash, version 5.0.18(1)-release (x86_64-motorshed-linux-gnu)        * Origin: Little Mikey's EuroPoint - Ladysmith BC, Canada (2:280/464.113)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 18/200 90/1 120/340 123/131 124/5016 154/10 203/0 221/0       SEEN-BY: 226/30 227/114 229/101 424 426 452 664 1016 240/1120 2100       SEEN-BY: 240/5138 5411 5832 5853 249/206 317 400 280/464 5003 288/100       SEEN-BY: 292/8125 310/31 317/3 320/219 322/757 342/200 396/45 423/120       SEEN-BY: 633/280 770/1 2454/119       PATH: 280/464 240/5832 229/426           |
