I find that once again FSFE-UK has reverted to not timestamping emails to me at all, and they are again arriving at my machine, allegedly, on Thu Jan 1 00:59:59 1970
Is this the only list with this effect for you? Has anyone else on fsfe-uk noticed it? Can ALUG help us at all?
Hoping,

That is time "-1" converted to UK local time. GNU/Linux (unlike Windows XP) correctly knows that the UK was experimenting with double summer time (UTC+2) and British standard time in the winter (UTC+1), so for us UTC 0 is Jan 1 01:00:00 1970.
I don't know why the email would be time stamped with "-1".
Hope this helps, Tim.
