What is the correct format for importing dates

[Bob Roswell]

I have been trying to import customers using my version of TEMPLATE_cust_main.import.

I am getting Illegal expiration date.  I have tried every date format I can think of including the seconds since the epoch 999095377 currently .

What is the correct format?
