It wasn't me. Or at least I dont think it was. The VERBOSE bit is certainly
not mine, and I seem to recall someone else suggesting this patch. I
probably commented on it, though, because the use of time.strptime bugged me
-- BSDI doesn't have strptime. As I can't find this patch in any of my
Mailman installs, patch archives and mailboxes, I'm fairly sure it's not me
who's seeing premature signs of old age ;)

Will the the real contributor please rise ? ;)
