	Help I've lost my TimeZone, and I can't get mail!

	Once again this wonderful bug has found it's way into deadzone,
	this time really bothering me and my mail feed.

	I've checked everything that uucp uses to call or accept logins,
	and they all have the TZ set prior to executing anything, yet I
	still get the following message somtimes...

		"TZ=/bin/cat rmail marcelo" 
	
	Is there anything else I can check? I've looked through
	everything I could think of, installed Alexis' scripts (but they
	are for a different problem). 

	The biggest problem is that it's not consistent. I could be
	running for days without ever seeing that "pain-in-the-rear"
	message, and other times I can be running for just a few minutes
	and it starts up. 

	Any ideas or am I helplessly left in a "Time Warp"?
