This would seem to work, but I am aware that it could change -0000 to
+0000 elsewhere in the headers, since the sed filter is non-specific,
and I'd prefer this not to happen.

How about changing only the Date:-header by using
's/^\(Date:.*\)\-0000/\1\+0000/g' or perhaps
's/^\([dD][aA][tT][eE]:.*\)\-0000/\1\+0000/g' ??

Right, I'll see if I can work out exactly how those work ... :-)  Not a
Sed expert, at least not yet ...

Btw, you should use pipe (|) instead of exclamation mark (!) when
filtering to a program.

Ah yes, it was a typo ...

Thanks for the help.

Dave.
