Greetings all;
This is the clock shown in the upper right corner of the message
window. I have never had kmail display a clock before until
installing TDE R14.
I have it in 3.5.13.2 and have had it for some time.
Or is it? It was showing 0.08 when I sat down a
minute ago, but the
system time for the rest of the clocks was 2:08. But I just pulled
this composer window down so I could see it again, and now its
correct. Both are now showing 2:12
Was I seeing things?
No. It is not showing your system time. It is showing the time where
the writer of the email you are reading resides, though I can't
remember whether it adjusts for summer time.
You, so far as I can tell from your emails, are at GMT -4. The clock
at the top right of this message window therefore ought to be 4 hours
ahead of your system time, since I am currently at GMT.
So KMail's clock isn't off by anything, though edst (Eastern Daylight
Savings Time) may have had some effect. As I said, I can't remember
whether it adjusts for summer time.

Ahh, soo... Senders time when the mail is being read here, in your case
in GMT. Currently reported in local time, 13:33, since I am at 09:33,
the GMT-4 (for daylight savings time which took effect here last Sunday
morning at 2am local) is correct. Could be a handy bit of info. Thanks
Lisi.
Cheers, Gene Heskett
