Automated emails from livejournal.com don't display dates

[minneyar]

As the summary says, e-mails sent from livejournal.com do not display anything in the "date" column, although they are sorted correctly. When viewing the message, the "Date:" field is also empty. When I view the raw headers, the date is obviously present. Here are the headers from an example message:

I've also attached a screenshot showing what the main message list looks like.

"Sat, 15 Mar 2008 00:54:33 UT" is not a correct date/time string. It should be formatted according to rfc2822.

Maybe we could consider a fallback stripping off the timezone part if parsing fails.

[minneyar]

Out of curiosity, what part of that string isn't correct? I've gone through the specification at http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc2822.html, and it seems valid to me, but maybe I'm missing something.
