I didnt think DateTime was a null terminated string? Its 20 Bytes in the packed message header (FTS-0001.16 C.1).
"A packed message has a number of fixed length
fields followed by four null terminated strings."
(those being: to/from/subject and text are null terminated).
Or have a missed something?
