Can you give us an example of a broken time parsing? I'm currently using
HylaFax to send batches with -k now+72hours and it does work as expected. I
will investigate the problem if you can give me one example of a killtime
not parsed as expected. And it is expected that it is parsed as documented.
(If you give killtime a parameter which is not documented, you shouldn't
expect anything, but there are undocumented formats which are parsed
correctly AFAIK. The manual can't contain every possible formats and stay
easy to understand (And there is no time that can't be set using only the
documented parameters).)
