I'm sure, but that seem to be an e-mail with some kind of virus.

Assuming you're talking about the winmail.dat file that was attached,
that's a file that Microsoft Outlook attaches to emails. It adds some
general metadata to the email when another Outlook client receives it.
It, in and of itself, is not a virus.

Really? I looked at the source, but did not see anything.

So... does anybody have an answer to the original question? Personally,
I'm running Sarge, and am also interested in whether such a patch exists.
Thanks,

Neat. But this proves that ST setup is ok?

In a slightly different form:
date --date="Mar 10 15:00:00 UTC 2007"
Sat Mar 10 09:00:00 CST 2007
date --date="Mar 11 15:00:00 UTC 2007"
Sun Mar 11 10:00:00 CDT 2007
You see in the output of these date commands that the timezone is listed
as CST on March 10 and CDT on March 11, which is correct. You can run
the same to commands to determine whether your system also returns the
correct timezones on those dates. (Given that I'm running stable and
get correct results, I expect that you'll be fine as long as you're
up-to-date with whichever branch you're running.)

Now I'm really confused. I'm running stable/sarge too:

Have I missed something blindingly obvious here? I thought Canada was
supposed to be aligning itself with US ST/DT?

If you examine the email's source, you will see that there is *no*
malware attached to it.
