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

I have it in 3.5.13.2 and have had it for some time.

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.)

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?

I do:
View -> Headers -> check Fancy Headers
and it sticks. Until I change it to something else, and that sticks. (E.g. 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

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

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

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.
