You and others should try to fix your times and timezones, or to ask why
Hushmail is sending messages dated in the past.
Look at the time of your message and of the one you respond to.
(John Young also has the problem, with his message several hours into
the future from when he clearly posted them.)
This is a problem because many of us, even most of us, sort our messages
by the date they are stamped.
Not the most important problem in the world, but worth it for folks to
spend a couple of minutes setting their system clocks accurately or
inquiring with Hushmail or whatever why they are incorrectly
time-stamping mail.
