    SBBS tells me this message was written 8 minutes ago so if that is true this message arrived here quickly.

    And which mailer is used to display the sender time of this message ?

    I am using my BBS to read and reply to this message.

    The message time is the local time of the writer of the message. TZUTC is the offset to UTC time.

    And which mailer is used to display the sender time of this message ?

    Any mailer that is used by the receiver/reader of the message (area) ?

    Bye, Wilfred.

    Hello Wilfred!

    The message time is the local time of the writer of the message.
    TZUTC is the offset to UTC time.

    :-)

    I specifically meant my original message.
    Just want to test if my mailer processes TZUTC kludge correctly.

    And which mailer is used to display the sender time of this message
    ?

    Any mailer that is used by the receiver/reader of the message (area)
    ?

    :-)

    BTW: you live in Central Europe, according to you time zone, correct ?

    Your original message:

    Message time: 2020-12-14 16:31:00
    Arrival time: 2020-12-14 16:32:20

    So that seems to be the case.

    Yes.

    Yep, seen it and it would be really nice if somebody could be kind
    enough to translate your explanation into English, please, thanks :-)

    Hallo Martin!

    To keep a long story short: the "Datumscode" a.k.a. "EDA" field in OpenXP
    is in ZConnect format.

    Datumscode: 20201214153100W+1 (14.12.20, 16:31)

    The part before the "W+1" is always UTC so you can (hypothetically) sort messages by this field.

    The "W+1" is the difference of local time minus UTC, and the part in parentheses is the local time.

    OK and thanks very much for that.
