Time zone issue

Open jaamoe opened this issue 10 years ago • 1 comments

Hello, I have discovered something strange. When you choose say 8 am tomorrow and I have my correct time zone selected (CST for me) it will deliver the email 6 hours before that time. Now, if i choose Greenwich time it will be delivered at the correct time.

this example is set with my correct time zone. screen shot 2015-05-20 at 9 10 47 am

This example is when the time zone is set with greenwich time. screen shot 2015-05-20 at 9 11 17 am

If this is normal I will let it be but if its not I thought I would bring it to your attention. Thank you for creating this script. Other then this issue we love it.

It seems that the problem is a difference of 6 hours. I got the same problem when I wrote 12pm tomorrow. Here is a log, every line is described here:

  • What I wrote
  • The parsed date (twice)
  • My timezone (America/New_York)
  • The formatted date from Utilities.format(date, tz, format)
  • Full formatted date

Do you think we could solve this by reducing the date hours by 6?
