Hi,

I've just switched my IMAP emails from Fossamail to Thunderbird 68.8.1 (32-bit), on three Windows 10 (x64) devices. On each device, the DATE and RECEIVED columns are displaying new emails with the wrong date and time yet the Date inside the email headers is correctly shown.

Example: Today's date is Fri 29 May 2020 and it's now around 10:54 Date in email source ie CTRL+U shown as: Thu, 28 May 2020 22:43:58 -1000 TB Columns display: Received 09:43 Date 09:43

I'm in UK. The regions and dates on each Windows device is displayed correctly but per online advice I've changed regions to Hawaii (ie UTC -10:00) then back to UK (ie UTC +00:00) after closing TB. It made no difference.

I also use two Android devices when on the move. Both show the correct Date as 22.44 on 28th May.

Can someone please guide me through this confusion? Ironic that I switched from Fossamail because it wasn't supported anymore (support was never needed) and now I need support after switching.

Thanks in hope!

If the date: header is correct and what is being displayed is incorrect, there are very few reasons why that can be. Mostly it comes down to the UTC offset on your device being incorrect or the timezone being set incorrectly (including daylight savings time settings.)
