Dear Mutt Users,

Often, I wish to know the time at which someone wrote me an e-mail
converted to the local time zone. Since most of my contacts live in
another time zone, (and some use the time zone +0000 even though that
isn't where they live), I have to do some mental calculations which
I'd like to avoid sometimes.

Currently, my workaround for this is to make Mutt unignore a header
called X-Date, and add a procmail recipe like this:

:0 f:
* ^Date: *\/[^ ].*
| formail -a "X-Date: `date  +\"%a, %d %b %Y %H:%M:%S %z\" -d
\"$MATCH\"`"

Naturally, this works only for e-mail delivered via procmail and not
if I use Mutt as an IMAP agent. I can live with this solution, but I
was wondering if you could come up with a better solution than this.

Thanks.

Kumar
