Description Andrew Overholt 2007-04-13 16:05:37 UTC
Hitting reply results in the attribution string having the month and day
reversed.  Example:

Fri, 09 Mar 2007

=> "On Fri, 2007-09-03 ..."

That should read "On Fri, 2007-03-09 ..."

I'm running under en_CA.  See the screenshot.

Comment 2 Matthew Barnes 2007-04-27 18:13:09 UTC
The attribution string is localized, whereas I believe the Date field in the
original message is displayed as is.

Closing this as NOTABUG since it seems to be the intended behavior, but feel
free to reopen this if you feel there's an issue with that behavior.

Comment 4 Andrew Overholt 2007-04-27 22:10:30 UTC
That is *definitely* a bug.  Can we fix it in our packages until Adam W. (I
assume he still does the translations) gets a chance to fix upstream?  A simple
reversal of the ${Day} and ${Month} in msgstr would be perfect, I think.  Thanks.

Comment 5 Matthew Barnes 2007-04-28 04:52:58 UTC
No problem.  Fixed in evolution-2.10.1-8.fc7.
