Bug #98255 for Mail-Box: Broken email clients inserting month as numeral

Some broken mail clients insert the date's month as numeric rather than month name. This patch enables them to still be parsed. Would it be possible to accept it please? Thanks!

Would be nice to document which clients. Accepted.

Looks like a Yahoo auto-responder. Which is also broken in that it's even replying to messages with the header Precedence: bulk Show quoted text

Unfortunately you missed the options when calling SMTP->send in scalar mode. See attached. Thanks, Andy

fixed version uploaded. Sorry. I always have to apply patches by hand, because the released code is the result of processing my sources (extracting documentation) -- greetz, MarkOv ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mark Overmeer MSc MARKOV Solutions Mark@Overmeer.net solutions@overmeer.net http://Mark.Overmeer.net http://solutions.overmeer.net
