Then SquirrelMail is running in default time zone and PHP functions fail to report your server's time zone correctly. > Seems like there must be some sort of global configuration somewhere > that controls this.

It uses your server's time zone by default. If you use PHP 5.1.x - date functions are rewritten and SquirrelMail does not support date_default_timezone_set() function yet. -- Tomas ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by xPML, a groundbreaking scripting language that extends applications into web and mobile media.
