[ZendTo] autorequest API assistance

[Jules]

Gregg,

You will probably need to specify the expirydatetime. The docs are a bit 
out of date, sorry!
What happens if you provide the string '0' as the parameter for 
--expirydatetime?

That error should only happen if PHP's strtotime() function cannot parse 
the time and date you entered. Which is puzzling as that format should 
be fine, and works for me.

Can you double-check you've got the timezone set in your php.ini file? 
(search your php.ini files for "timezone" and you'll find it.

If none of that helps, let me know and I'll go on a deeper hunt for you.

Cheers,
Jules.
