Y2K message question

I got this from a part time faculty member who was doing y2k testing on his
system at his full time work. He was wondering if this indicates that our
mail server and sendmail are not y2k compliant. The date that appears to
have been returned from our system storm is: Date: Sat, 1 Jan 100 02:50:05
-0600 (CST). I am running Tru64-UNIX 4.0d with patch kit 3. The version of
sendmail is 8.8.7. Any ideas?
