In 1990s where the time that
electronic mail or e-mail become popular. But an email that had been receive
which shows a date that is 1970s, this seems to be weird.
When the glitches on the iPhone
and other iOS devices had been fixed in the recent update, seems another had
surface out. Many iPhone owners reportedly, that they receive an email which
came from January 1, 1970.
The email itself has no content,
no sender and but shows only the date (January 1, 1970). This new email glitch
seems to have a connection with the previous bug, the January 1, 1970 bug that results
too many iPhones to bricked or render unusable.
The email often showing in a
different time zone, when iPhone owners checks their email. The date ”January 1,
1970” represents 0 in the UNIX time –which is the way of computers to
understand time and date.
Every second since midnight on
January 1 1970 is a different point in UNIX time (we’re currently at around
1.45 billion). So when an email is sent without any time data, or a time zone
bug means it can’t be interpreted, the iPhone will default to zero – 1970.
Many iPhone users who have opened
the email bug have reported fixing it, closing the app and perform a hard reset
on the device (hold down the lock and home button until it reset).
