Description Mike Williams 2013-05-16 12:37:19 UTC
We get some automated email alerts that have a slightly malformed Date header.
Kmail2 can't parse it, but several other clients can. For example Kmail 1, current thunderbird, and roundcube are all quite happy with them.

The date header looks like this;
Date: 03 Oct 2012 14:37:27 -00:00

Reproducible: Always
Comment 1 Laurent Montel 2013-05-30 09:01:43 UTC
it's a bug for kdelibs.
Comment 2 Chusslove Illich 2013-06-04 08:22:59 UTC
Could you be more specific on how it is a bug for kdelibs? Because I'm not
sure I see kdelibs' readDate/readTime being used in KDE-PIM. Even if they
were used, they do not claim to be able to read invalid date/time strings.
In fact, they explicitly signal if the date/time string is invalid, so this
cannot be just changed to fuzzily accept invalid strings.

Laurent, If you can provide the information requested in comment #2, please add it.
