I'm not sure why there are so many computers around at the moment that
are
set
to -0700 .

Some weird computer glitch somewhere down the line, as it were? A
power cut
somewhere or other? It's way above my head!

I assumed somebody was setting them up wrong in the factory.

Perhaps the Millennium Bug is striking late. ;-)

Yes but which millennium? :-)

However, a couple of
people kindly took this to email and checked it for me. The overall
feeling
is that it was a genuine misrouting.

The messages with a UTC -0700 are sent via google groups and nothing to do
with
local PC settings in this case. Something else google groups does wrong.

Are you saying that this mysterious email which was lost to someone else and
suddenly turned up in Sacha's email box, is all down to posting via Google
groups? If so I am glad I have never wandered from my own ISP. Whilst
cruising I am unable to post to newsgroups, monitor yes, but only post via
Google if I wanted to, I think, (but don't know how to do it). Something to
do with bandwidth and Satellite connections.

Oh well it's nice to know that it all ended nicely :-)
