Build: May 3 Commercial build id 1999-05-03-17 installed on PPC 7200/90 OS 8.5.1 May 4 Mozilla build id 1999-05-04-08 installed on PPC 7200/90 OS 8.5.1 Problem: All messages displayed in the Thread pane has the wrong year shown. It shows all messages as being sent in the year 1929. If you look at the Inbox mailbox file in BBedit, it shows that the message has the correct year (1999). The problem occurs with any messages viewed from within Seamonkey. Note: messages sent from Seamonkey to Nova are sent with the correct year. Steps to reproduce problem 0) Your Inbox should have at least one message. 1) Launch Apprunner 2) Open Messenger 3) Select the Inbox 4) Look at the year listed under the Date column. They show the year 1929 which is wrong.
I'll add this to the M5 release notes.

I don't think we should hold M6 for this one. Especially given that we require Tague's fix for 6680 to even see the date and we don't know when that will get checked in.
Whiteboard: move to m7? requires Tague's fix for 6680
Target Milestone: M6 → M7
moved to M7
Depends on: 6680

I need to totally review how me manage the time in mailnews. Today we are mixing std libs call and PR_Time call which is bad

I have replaced time_t by PRTime all over mailnews code, now dates are displayed correctly on all platforms

Build 1999070108M8: Mac 8.5.1 Verified Fixed Checked IMAP, POP and a News Server. In all cases the Inbox messages never showed the year 1929. They appear to be the correct dates.
