So my wife's employer's hosted email system is set up in UTC. Every
the email I get from her includes a header line such as
Date: Mon, 15 Dec 2014 16:27:12 +0000
It's probably outside the scope of NMH, but I was hoping there might
be a way to set up "show" or "mhl" to notice this and convert the Date
headerto either my (the recipient machine's) local time zone, or a
time zone specified in a config file.
You know ... I was wondering this myself. Turns out there is! I
realize that mh-format(5) can be a bit daunting, and my first effort
didn't work, but the answer isn't so bad. The mh-format magic is:
%(date2local{date})%(pretty{date})
Well, that all depends on where you're using it. The key line in the
default mhl.format is:
Date:formatfield="%<(nodate{text})%{text}%|%(pretty{text})%>"
For this case, you'd want:
Date:formatfield="%<(nodate{text})%{text}%|%(date2local{text})%(pretty{text})%>"
Shouldn't that be the default?
