 The idea of shipping a "standard" time and date (universal or whatever)
sounds good, but I think there is an argument that the recipient of a
message might like to know the local time of day that the message was
sent.  Of course, the receiving mail program COULD know the time zones
of all possible sites the mail could have been sent from, but I think
it would be a better solution to ship both flavors of dates...
