Time

[Randy]

Why does the time applied to my email's not match my local time on the
computer?

Hi, Randy.

Probably because you are using the browser interface, rather than a
newsreader. The browser posts are always time-stamped with Redmond time.
(Microsoft headquarters are in Redmond, WA, near Seattle.) That is,
Pacific Standard Time or Pacific Daylight Time, depending on time of year.
PST is GMT -0800; PDT is GMT -0700. For example, your post shows this time
stamp:
Date: Tue, 16 Mar 2010 05:49:01 -0700

If you are in any other time zone, it will not match your computer's time
setting.

I use Windows Live Mail, so my posts always show the same time as my wall
clocks. ;<)

We are to guess as to what you use as the e-mail client? Are you using a
local e-mail client or the webmail interface to your account?
