Thats the point, those emails that are coming dated yesterday or 
tomorrow are from the people who's PCs have the incorrect time set.. 
Thats the people I send the original mail to in order that they set 
their times on their PCs which will stop us getting mail from yesterday 
or tomorrow..

See the following header line from the mail you sent..
from [196.25.100.151] (unverified [196.25.100.151]) by    
pinmail.pinnacle.co.za (Rockliffe SMTPRA 3.4.2) with ESMTP id    
<B0003292627 at pinmail.pinnacle.co.za> for <fedora-list at redhat.com>;     
Tue, 23 Mar 2004 20:24:39 +0200

That says that the mail was sent at 20:24:39 +0200 my mail client will 
then compansate (using the +0200) and show the correct time of the mail 
for my timezone..

Later..
