Not to yesterday's date, but to 20141203, which I'm guessing is 60 days  
before today.  It looks like it's using the "Today minus [60] days"  
setting instead of "Last update."  I believe that setting is in the kmm  
file as an index, not a text value.  Do we have an "off by one" issue?   
Not a typical one, as setting to a specific date works fine.  Setting  
to today minus 5 days works (20150129).  Setting that back to 10 days  
and then selecting "Last update" reverts to 20141203.  So it looks like  
it is using the "default" of today minus 60 days if "Last update" is  
checked.

I'll have to see if I can create a smaller test case.

Too bad there isn't an ofx server out there where you can set up test  
accounts just for this sort of testing.
