Hi all.
I am using Solaris 8 (02/02) and Exim 4.10
Location South Africa
Timezone = GMT+2

I has read the documentation. I understand that I can set my timezone
from two places:
At build-time by adding TIMEZONE_DEFAULT in Local/Makefile
and at run-time by adding timezone in the configure file.

Here is what I have tried and the results. For each result I did make
makefile, add line/config, make, make install, /usr/exim/bin/exim -bd -q30m

In Local/Makefile:
Added line    TIMEZONE_DEFAULT=TZ
Result            220 marcus.wits.ac.za ESMTP Exim 4.10 Sun, 13 Oct 2002
11:26:18 -0200


Added line    TIMEZONE_DEFAULT=GMT+2
Result            220 marcus.wits.ac.za ESMTP Exim 4.10 Sun, 13 Oct 2002
11:32:27 -0200


In configure (removed the lines added in Makefile)
timezone = UTC
220 marcus.wits.ac.za ESMTP Exim 4.10 Sun, 13 Oct 2002 13:40:39 +0000

timezone = UTC+2
220 marcus.wits.ac.za ESMTP Exim 4.10 Sun, 13 Oct 2002 11:42:29 -0200

timezone = GMT+2
220 marcus.wits.ac.za ESMTP Exim 4.10 Sun, 13 Oct 2002 11:43:23 -0200

I have read the docs, and it says"This is appropriate behaviour for
obtaining wall-clock time on some, but unfortunately not all, operating
systems"
Is Solaris 8 02/02 one of these systems?
