Symptoms:
	PHNE_20505:
	1) DTS JAGab83576 / SR 8606110827:
	   elm will set the "In-Reply-To:" field in the header to
	   a 2 or 3 digit year in a replied mail. This is seen when
	   the "h" command is used to view the header of the replied
	   mail.  The "Received on" and "Message sent on" fields
	   displayed with the "#" command can also show a 2 or 3
	   digit year.
	2) DTS JAGab78059 / SR 8606107768:
	   In some timezones, elm version 2.0 can show an incorrect
	   time/date in the message header in year 2001.

	PHNE_9860:
	* Generalised solution for date and time problem.

	PHNE_9166:
	* man page errors  ( default alias file size stated as 1000
	  instead of 5000).
	* Can't use environment variables in message
	* Setting options erases useraliasdbsize
	* causes problems with aliases.
	* elm mangles shell option if options are stored unchanged.
	* Problem handling return addresses with (name) in them.

Defect Description:
	PHNE_20505:
	1) DTS JAGab83576 / SR 8606110827:
	   The year in the header fields "In-Reply-To",
	   "Received on" and "Message sent on" displayed a 2 digit
	   value.
	Resolution:
	   The year field has been modified to display a 4 digit
	   year.
	2) DTS JAGab78059 / SR 8606107768:
	   The date displayed in the upper right corner of the elm
	   screen, when a mail is viewed, indicates when the mail
	   was sent. This date can differ with the date in the
	   "Date" header of the mail when the year is 2001.
	Resolution:
	   There was an error in date comparision for years 2001
	   and later. This has been corrected to fix the problem.

	PHNE_9860:
	* The year was displayed as 2 digit number.
	  This was resulting in improper handling
	  of sorting,expiry and display of messages.

	PHNE_9166:
	* To facilitate the use of double qoutes the adressed was
	  enclosed in single quotes. This prevented the evaluation
	  of the environmental variable by the shell
	* When saving options from the options menu the aliasdbsize
	  in the elmrc file is deleted.
	* The flag for specifying the correct aliases.text file was
	  not properly set.
	* Problem with the path specified in the elmrc file while
	  saving from the options menu.
	* The address field was not properly processed before
	  giving to sendmail
