  The trailing +0000 indicate the time is given in GMT (which is currently 
8 hrs ahead: your 18:** + 8:00 = 26:** = 24:00 + 2:**

My message may show  -0800 (PST) (just guessing)
  The mechine I am sending this from is on GMT; so I needed to customize my 
environment; when I enter 'env' the related line shows: 'TZ=PST8'
  ((I didn't find a good man(1) page... I had to stumble through it --so 
don't me any deep questions))....................... Horst
