Differing Times between Thunderbird and other email clients
I was looking at some email in Thunderbird and then looked at the same email via the built in Mail app in Windows and noticed they had different times attached to them. I then went to look at that same message directly on Gmail and it's time corresponded with the one in the Windows app.
Granted I know generally it is not a huge issue, but just curious as to where Thunderbird is getting it's time stamp from?

The difference is probably due to how the apps extract times from the message headers and display it in the Date column:

Thanks for the link. It's interesting that on some messages they all match and on others they are different.
Forgot to ask, with that thread you link you posted above, it had another link with solutions to "fix" the problem. From what I can tell both are doing the same thing? One you do manually buried in the settings and the other is an addon.
Yes, I think the add-on is doing the same thing as the manual fix, but with through a more familiar user interface. The manual fix should still work if the add-on becomes incompatible with a future TB.
