   Seriously, why wouldn't you implement it?   
      
   I'm asking because I was thinking about a maintenance function in FMail to   
   sort messages in a jam area in chronological order. It sometimes happens when   
   there is a "hickup" in the echomail feed, you get a bunch of pkt files at once   
   that don't get imported in their proper order. Reading the new messages in an   
   area where this happend is not pleasant.   
      
   But to be able to sort messages in their propper chronological order, in this   
   world wide network, you need to know their "real" time in UTC.   
      
   So I was going through some areas to look at the usage of the TZUTC flag, and   
   was surprised how little it is used.   
      
   I could implement some lookup table that determines the UTC offset from the   
   zone and netnumber. But that is a lot of work and not watertight. Because   
   there are for instance points that are in a different timezone than their   
   bosses. So it would be better if the TZUTC flag would be present in as many as   
   possible messages!   
      
   Bye, Wilfred.
