so it can't convert string to date because there are zeros in GMT offset 
?? wouldn't that be a bug ?

from imp/mailbox.php

/* Formats the header date string nicely. */
     if (empty($h->date) || (($udate = strtotime($h->date, $curr_time)) 
== -1)) {

what does -1 do at the end of this line ? changing it to 1 or +1 seems 
to fix this problem just fine.



here's an example of the difference between "non working" and "working" 
date headers.

Date: Thu, 27 Oct 2005 18:41:22 +0000 GMT

Date: Mon, 31 Oct 2005 13:00:00 -0500 (EST)
