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. 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?
Cheers, Gene Heskett

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.

It does adjust. On 7/3/15 you were at GMT -5. And on 8/3/15 you were at GMT -4. That is presumably when edst came in, assuming that you didn't move.
Sorry, I'll take pity. Anyhow on the rest of you! This is an international list, and I try to remember it. So 7/3/15 means 7th March 2015. Please Gene, could you reciprocate? (And remember that this is an international list.)

Is there some kmail setting I need to make?

No. It is doing it! It obviously in fact uses local time not system time.
Have you noticed that it also tells you what part of the day? Morning, evening, night. It tells you the time the correspondent is on now, not the time (s)he wrote the email. I thoroughly enjoy it, having once worked out what it was doing. And it can occasionally be useful.

Clock? What is this clock of which you speak? I've never seen it. I do have Configure-Message Window-Show current sender time checked. But still no clock. Where should I be looking?

You need to have Fancy Headers set. I imagine you haven't if you haven't seen it. I've only just discovered that as the result of your query, which is why I haven't mentioned it before. Sorry.

Configure kmail->apearance->message window. Bottom checkmark.

Yes, I've got that. But - as has already been pointed out - you need to have fancy headers enabled in the message as well. And I can't make that setting stick. I always have Standard Headers, unless I do Fancy Headers for each message.
How to change to Fancy Headers permanently?
cheers

I do: View -> Headers -> check Fancy Headers and it sticks. Until I change it to something else, and that sticks. (E.g. I have used Full Headers and forgotten to change it back.) I don't know how to do it temporarily!!

Well, it doesn't stick for me. Anyone know what controls the 'stickiness'?

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.
