I wish Berkmail would use numeric timezones instead of three letter
abbreviations in Date: lines. Australian Eastern Standard Time is also
EST.  (Hey, I didn't pick the abbreviation.) Thus mail sent my friends
with Berkmail is interpreted as coming from the Eastern US (-0500) in
the future.  And at a time when the eastern seaboard is on EDT.

Down with TLAs, let's go numeric.

Grumble. Yet another reason to prefer MH.
