Hi all

When the incoming email files are written to the Maildir/new/ dir they are given a timestamp of 1 hour slower than system time. The "send" timestamp in the message when retrieved via pop3 is correct, but the received time is 1 hour slow.

Running on AIX 5.1, is it an issue with Postfix not reading the system time correctly? Current system time is NZST, and this time of the year there is no daylight savings time.

Removed daylight savings settings on the server for now, that fixed it, after the change I had to set the system date forward by an hour to correct the system to the present time.

It seems Postfix is reading the wrong time values from the system.
