You don't... your system does that via its time configuration. So as long as your system's time (and timezone) are configured properly Mutt is already using it. > I do remote login (with ssh) to my email account. So... you need to change your time zone on the mail server. If you can't do that system wide, you can set the TZ environment variable... maybe. No one really does this anymore so theoretically it should still work, but you may have trouble finding documentation to give you the right setting for your particular time zone. > I looked at the mutt documentation on configuration and I also did several > Web searches, but I could not find this. You won't, because this isn't really something Mutt does... As with many things, Mutt tries to let the peice of software that specializes in managing a given function do its job, and in this case that's your OS. -- Derek D.
