I'm not too familiar with NSDateFormatter. Do you need to call - setDateFormat:?

Ah, thanks, I missed the statement hidden on page 23 of "Data Formatting Programming Guide for Cocoa", which says:

"You use the format string is used to specify both the input to and the output from date formatter objects."

That's a bummer, because RFC822 dates have some optional elements and so don't conform to a fixed format. I hoped that the default parsing was smart.

Anyone have any pointers to some Objective-C RFC822-date-time parsing code? An NSDateFormatter category containing dateFromRFC822DateTimeString: would be great :-)

Best regards,
-Steve
