Sebastian Spaeth <sebast...@sspaeth.de> added the comment:

I think I found the issue he mentioned, however it was about the functions 
taking the local time (rather than UTC), which is fine.

The problem is that Time2Internaldate is used for every .append() operation 
internally, producing invalid dates which are handed to the IMAP server. So in 
most cases, the IMAP server will silently ignore the time and use the current 
time (as per IMAP RFC) or it will complain and barf out (as the MS Exchange 
server rightly does.

So this is more than just an inconvenience, it outright prevents intenational 
users from APPENDing new messages to a server (or silently bodges the message 
date) as there is no way around using that function...

Sorry if this sounds like whining :-) I don't even have a patch handy...
