Bug ID: 361441 Summary: Wrong "Date" headers on sent mail; timezone erronously picked up. Product: kmail2 Version: 4.14.10 Platform: Fedora RPMs OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: NOR Component: general Assignee: kdepim-b...@kde.org Reporter: mfs...@inventati.org The TZ is CEST. If I send an email at 19:00 CEST, it gets sent as "17:00 +0200". "Fancy headers" will show "17:00". "Brief headers" will show "19:00". This is utterly misleading. kmail2 should either use UTC time ( "17:00" ) or CEST time ("19:00 +0200"). Incoming email from people not using kmail will correctly suit this behaviour. Side note: it would be nice to see the TZ or the offset in Fancy headers/Brief headers, but probably this should be considered separately. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.send an email 2.check the Date header on the sent email 3.the header is wrong Actual Results: Wrong date headers make difficult to track the mail order in e.g. a conversation with many short-timed replies Expected Results: Consistent, correct "Date" headers $ timedatectl Local time: mer 2016-04-06 07:48:14 CEST Universal time: mer 2016-04-06 05:48:14 UTC RTC time: mer 2016-04-06 05:48:14 Time zone: Europe/Rome (CEST, +0200) Network time on: no NTP synchronized: no RTC in local TZ: no -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
