       ac> Curious that MakeNL generates the datetime field for *.MSG files in        ac> SEAdog format:               ac> Mon 22 Oct 12 23:10               ac> instead of the usual FTS-1 format, which allows seconds:               ac> 22 Oct 12 23:10:45              either is fine AFAICT... the seconds might be nice to help avoid duplicate       collisions but that's not a real bother in netmail...               ac> Perhaps Ben Baker's original MakeNL did this but I can't think of a        ac> good justification for it.              i'd have to look at a generated netmail from makenl since i still run the       original... i do know that frontdoor doesn't seem to have a problem with it...       evidently it can detect and use either... my makenl posts outbound netmail       directly to my FD netmail area...               ac> Obviously the weekday can always be calculated from an FTS-1 date.        ac> Storing it is completely redundant.              WAG: seadog might have done it that way to save on calculation time... since       it was already done by the originator, all they had to do was to display it...              )\/(ark               * Origin: (1:3634/12)    |
