Send me mail so I can figure out a path to your .UUCP site and I'll send you a C routine that will produce a correctly formatted date field. Writing code to parse ``91May12 9:52 am'' shouldn't be very hard. I'd also suggest that if Subject == ``[none]'' you should set it to ``Gatewayed from Citadel network'', which is at least informative. ---- Steve Yelvington, Marine on St. Croix, Minnesota, USA / steve@thelake.mn.org
