Posting with Yarn and Vsoup

Hello, I have just installed the Yarn programs and the VSOUP program. I
have the system importing news just fine but when I go to post an article
my news server gives me a message something like:
"441 can not parse date header". Would it be the VSOUP program causing
this or the Yarn programs? Would the TZ environment variable have
something to do with it? I can not seem to get it set right for
Newfoundland. How do you set this for 3 hours and 30 minutes west of GMT?
The examples I can find only show whole hours.

Help with this would be very much appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Doug

Configuration so far:
Yarn version 0.92 for Windows95
PKzip version 2.50 for Windows95
VSOUP for Windows95
Editor: Textpad

Here is the batch file I am using to put all of this together.

@echo off
rem Import batch file for yarn
c:
cd\tmp
if not exist reply.zip goto import
pkzip -extract -over=all reply.zip
vsoup -h c:\dlawlor -s

:import
rem Import any new articles
vsoup -h c:\dlawlor -k 16384 -m
e:\yarn\import -u
rem clean up
rm *.*
