I am having annoying time stamp problems.

I don't know if it is because of the time problems I have had recently 
or something out of my control.

My server time was behind by about 4 hours, this in turn caused the 
workstation to be out 4 hours. I then fixed that and the workstation did 
a time warp and was ahead by 24 hours. If I check my servers date it has 
it as the correct time, I check the /etc/timezone and it is 
Australia/Brisbane.

My time stamp problems are to do with my received mail. I have been 
getting mail from the HUMBUG list this morning with time stamps from 
yesterday.

As an example as far as Mozilla is concerned the last mail I got from 
the list is Jay's mail stamped 10/9/03 4:55PM.

When I look at the last message I sent to the chat list however it has a 
time of today at 10:07.

Where do I start? What time does your mail client have Jay's mail at, 
this morning or yesterday?
