PLEASE set your timezone, clock, date correctly

I imagine this request was intended to address the bizarre ordering of
messages in the archives ...

... as has been suggested before ... it *is* possible to set up the mailman
server to set the date and time of the postings it sends out to be the time
at which the message was resent ... this will ensure the proper sequencing
of the files in the archives ... as well as prevent the creation of archives
for years that are still afar off (2004?, 2007???).  The lists that I am
adminning on audifans are set up this way ...

Even if everyone sets their computer clocks to the proper time in their area
you will see resequencing in the archives if the clock on the poster's
computer is used ... "How did that lister in Hawaii respond to that post
from Europe before it was initially posted???"
