<h2>Description</h2>

<p>The MSGGMTDATEFMT resource specifies the date format for the
<strong><code>$MSGGMTDATE$</code></strong> resource variable
(i.e. The GMT date of the current message).
The format is a string containing zero or more conversion
specifications and regular characters.  A conversion specification
consists of the '<code><strong>%</strong></code>' character
followed a character that determines the type of conversion.
</p>

<p>The following lists the possible conversion specifications:
</p>

<table border=0 cellpadding=4>
<tr valign=top>
<td><strong>NOTE</strong></td>
<td><p>If <a href="posixstrftime.html">POSIXSTRFTIME</a> is set,
the <b>POSIX::strftime()</b> function will be used.  Therefore, there may be
more conversion specifications available.  See your system's
<b>strftime()</b> manpage for specifics.
</p>
