| Hi,
| I have one strange problem with UTL_SMTP.
|
| I am using the following code to set the date value and format in
| header buffer:
|
| header:= 'Date: '||TO_CHAR(SYSDATE,'fmDy, DD Mon YYYY fxHH24:MI:SS')||
| crlf||
| 'From: '||sender||''||crlf||
| 'Subject: '||subject||crlf||
| 'To: '||recipient||crlf||
| 'CC: '||ccrecipient ;
|
| With this method, the mails sent from database carry SYSDATE of the
| machine where the Oracle Database is running. In my case, database is
| running in India.
|
| People in US complain that they get future-dated mail. Since the
| database is running in India and there is time difference of 12 hr
| 30mins between the regions, this is expected. But when I send mail
| using Java Mail API, I did not have this kind of issue. Anything can
| be done for this???
|
| Help from somebody is highly appreciated.
|
| Thanks,
| Ary
|

Use:

to_char(systimestamp, 'Dy, dd Mon yy hh24:mi:ss tzhtzm')

Then there is the time zone in your date.
