[comp.mail.elm] folder sort and dates of the form +-NNNN

news@m2xenix.psg.com (Randy Bush) (12/16/90)

As more and more MUAs seem to be generating Date:s of the form

            WWW, DD, MM, YY[YY] {+-}HHMM

for example

            Date: Tue, 30 Oct 90 18:15 +1100

it would be nice if ELM's folder sort was not cnfused by them.

It's already been added to Elm 2.4 as part of a prior patch.

it was too complicated to add it to Elm 2.3, sorry, you'll
have to wait for 2.4.
(Actually it almost works in 2.3, but, almost doesn't count, I know)
