On or about: 01-07-08  21:21, Nancy Backus did engage Jean Parrot
regarding, but not limited to: BW setup.

I'm a little stumped here:

...Is my message screen at the head of your message. As you can see,
"January 9, 2008" *is* todays date, and " Date: 01-07-08 
21:21" seems reasonable. Am I missing something? I still use REPFIX.
