Hello to all,
i'm running ELOG on FreeBSD 5.2.
We've noticed an issue where e-mail notification from ELOG seem to
have their arrival time in the future, looks like it's about 13 hours ahead.


E-mail gateway to which ELOG posts its e-mail shows this e-mail transaction:
--------------------------------------------
Received: from elogunixbox.somewhere.net ([x.x.x.x]) by  
mailunixbox.somewhere.net with SMTP id <143408>; Mon, 11 Oct 2004 12:22:43 
+1300
To: crypt0@somewhere.net
From: elogposter@somewhere.net
Subject: New ELOG entry
X-Mailer: Elog, Version 2.5.3
X-Elog-URL: http://elog.somewhere.net/somelogbook/47
X-Elog-submit-type: web|elog
Date:  Mon, 11 Oct 2004 12:26:28 -3736512
--------------------------------------------


The last line in that log seems to have some strange time zone offset
(-3736512)
Usually you'd see a GMT+13 (New Zealand time zone on summer time).


Here's ELOG's own logs of that same e-mail delivery:

I noticed that there was a post talking about ELOG on MacOSx having some 
time issues, but nothing mentioning FreeBSD..

Any ideas?
Thanks to all in advance.
