Change it in the config file (my.cnf). It's right there. Just be
sure to have all your clients properly configured too.

And _please_ check your computer's date setting. Unless your mail
was delayed by almost 2 weeks, it's off by that much. Some people
like to sort their mail by date, and when the date is off by
that much the mail ends up hundreds or even thousands of positions
wrong in the list.

//C - about to change to pine. Seriously.
