Date-parsing code in versions of ZMailer prior to 2.99.51 are now
unnecessarily rewriting Date: headers on incoming mail. The result is that
all mail appears to have originated in the current timezone, at the time
it was received by the local site.

I've attached a patch. Save it to the /tmp directory on your CSuite site,
then:

$ cd $CS_ROOT		# replace $CS_ROOT with your CS_ROOT, e.g. /var/csuite
$ cd src/etc/zmailer/router/libdb
$ su			# become root
# patch < /tmp/header.c.patch
# make
# cd ..
# rm router
# make
# ls -l router		# make sure the new binary exists!
# strip router
# cd $CS_ROOT/etc/mail/bin
# mv router router.old && cp -p ~-/router .
# ./zmailer kill router
# ./zmailer router

If something goes wacky at this point, stop the router
(/var/csuite/etc/mail/bin/zmailer kill router), move the backup
router.old back to router (mv router.old router), and restart the router
(/var/csuite/etc/mail/bin/zmailer router).


Below is the same patch in unified diff format, in case you'd like to
apply it by hand.
