It's in a public message base, however the message I was looking at earlier that exhibited this behaviour in, seems to now be read and I'm still in the 23rd Jan local time, so I wonder if it is less related to timezones now.

I'll keep an eye on it and do some testing of my own and see if I can produce reliable results and let you know how I reproduce it. Starting to feel like it's just me being dense now :P
