Really eBay? Hehe, yes. Probably if you set your timezone on eBay then the messages arrive with double timezone ;)

Really eBay? Modified (combined two preg calls into single preg_replace() call) and committed.

Our users are receiving messages with dates in this format: Fri, 06 Oct 2006 12:15:13 +0100 (GMT+01:00) some of them come from Ebay itself. The attached patch removes the extra "(GMT+01:00)" part, if the first date_create() call failed, and tries to create the date again.
