[PJUG Javamail] I'm having a weird problem with log4j logs w/Tomcat

[Rob Tanner]

Eric,

I don't get it.  Both systems are running Fedora Core.  They both are 
properly configured for US/Pacific and they both are running the same 
version of the Java runtime.  So how one instance can have the right 
time and another the wrong time is a mystery.  But nevertheless, your 
suggestion solved the problem even though the mystery remains.  Thank you!
