Bug 237248: mail/thunderbird: TOC time off by 2 hours when DST is in effect
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D237248



--- Description ---
For some time now I've noticed that the displayed message time sometimes
differs between the TOC and message itself. I am able to reproduce using a
thunderbird package from pkg.freebsd.org but does not happen under windows =
10.

My theory is that the code is subtracting instead of adding an hour. I test=
ed
this by setting the system time back before DST took effect and the problem
went away.

I took a stab at finding the place where TOC date formatting occurs but
thunderbird is just too big for someone who doesn't work on it.

I'll attach a couple of screen grabs that show the problem.
