confirmed... i haven't seen any bad dates in a while with my pktdate tool so i
had to check my log file... my notes in my tossmail script show that i stopped
correcting the dates in the pkts 07 Jul 2014 otherwise i'd not have seen it
unless i did actually look at the logs and the saved *.y2k pkts...

definitely a y2k error in the software being used over there... hopefully it
will be an easy fix ;)
