I think I have an issue with my BBS. If I send messages out they have a different time stamped on the messages after I send them out...

I have checked the time on my system(s)... anything on my end that might have anything to do with the mail. I am running my BBS on a raspberry pi unit and I and the learning curve is great. I am not sure where the problem comes from...

Thanx

Please be more specific: what kind of "messages"? Do you have an example of these timestamps you're referring to?

How are you checking the timestamps on the messages after they're sent out? Do they change on your system? If not, are you seeing this on other BBSes? If you're seeing it on other BBSes, I wonder if those BBSes are doing a time zone conversion to show in local time, etc.

Joe, have a look at the thread in the Raspberry Pi echo for more on this.
It's nothing to do with you or the BBS software. There are some in Usenet grumbling about the Usenet gateway I am running and the timezone stamps it's applying to gated messages coming in from the Fido side. It's a non issue,
the software is configured correctly, has been running fine for several
years, and is only an issue to 1-2 people who don't like the format is gates content in to Usenet posts.

I think it's okay... I don't want to expand...

I know I figured it out..... It took me a day or so...

do you have an example? like for me, i'm writing this at 14:25 GMT-0400... since i'm four hours behind GMT, this post will have either the above time on it or 18:25 GMT... i don't know which and haven't set my time stuff in this new OS install or in scfg yet...
