Re: problem in Rfc2080 date of imap server

Why do you think that Rfc2060_datetime returns the time of the server? The man page of Mail::IMAPClient says different:

"The Rfc822_date method accepts one input argument, a number of seconds since the epoch date. It returns an RFC822 compliant date string for that date (without the 'Date:' prefix). Useful for putting dates in message strings before calling append, search, etcetera."

Surely it does/should return the time on the server if the supplied parameter is time() ? -- .sig : File not found.	[reply]

He seems to program a client (executed on the client machine), so time() should get the date and time of the client not the server.	[reply]

D'oh! I've been writing too much CGI code that runs on servers - in my head I've confounded "server" and "machine". More meaningful thoughts can now be posted... -- .sig : File not found.	[reply]
