+Somebody might like that, but *I* want to be able to see the sender date\r
+(being it right or wrong, machine cannot be sure but human reader can\r
+guess better) and local time (a version that is always absolute). In my\r
+emacs buffer the Date: header in your email currently looked to me like:\r
+\r
+Date: Sun, 16 Aug 2015 12:15:14 +0200  (Sun, 16 Aug 2015 13:15:14 +0300) \r
+\r
+In this case the dates did not make much of a difference (and in this time\r
+(22:39 +0300)) the message header bar there was (Today 13:15)). Anyway\r
+sometimes IT matters and in my 80-character terminal window this fits fine.\r
+\r
+I don't know better solution and don't know whether there is anyone else\r
+interested in such a feature so I just keep using this for myself...\r

+PS: last moment revelation: perhaps I could use just (13:15:14 +0300) there;\r
+still if I'd be the single user of that...\r
