There is no such value, so I'm not sure what you mean. The problem is that this Date: 18 Aug 2007 23:45:02 -0400 EDT is 3.45 UTC in the future. And that is the same what the first received line (see above) is showing. So, both data are accurate, but the system time is wrong. AFAIK in "19:45 -0400 EDT" only the local offset is relevant. It doesn't mean "4 hours before EDT". It means "4 hours before UTC and that is EDT". Kai -- Kai Schätzl, Berlin, Germany Get your web at Conactive Internet Services: http://www.conactive.com
