Mr. Mutz:

a) Not necessarily off topic, as it could be a security problem if dates were not working problem with software
b) I have "mime" checked in Outlook 2000, and under "encode text using: " it gives me three "sub-choices": (a) none (b) quoted printable (c) base64, which one will work best for you?
c) Alright 2038 testing
d) I had no idea nor any intention to send 3 copies, I have no concept of how that happened

OK:

a. This is totally OT for this list
b. You're not using MIME attachments, but proprietary Windows stuff. If
you want us to even look at it, use MIME.
c. All 32bit-time_t Unices will stop working properly in 2038. That's
due to the way they internally store the time (in secs since 1-1-1970
0:00 GMT). So anything resembling Y3K testing is completely bogus
anyway.
d. You don't need to send three copies of your message. One would have
sufficed.
