Lisa: I believe that the time stamp shows the time where you are, with a plus, or minus, the number of hours from UTC. As you are UTC plus an hour, that will be on your stamp. I am in the eastern time zone, so I should show up as minus 4.

On this message the BN says 8 colon some number I forget which one and then 46 no am or pm. Then it says dash 0500. What does that mean? Why does it list two times somets? I guess it makes sense when you reply to an email but why when someone just sends you one privately and you don't reply directly to it? I hope this makes sense. I would guess the couldt in your email means central daylight time? Some guide for these abbreviations would be helpful in the manual PDI (hint hint). Maybe I'm the only person who thinks this would be nice to have. Maybe everyone else understands every single time zone all 24 of them. I guess I missed that lesson in school how to abbreviate time zones. > Thanks for your help. Somehow this should be simple to understand. I get the time thing now with the hours minutes and seconds but why the second number after it? Why not am or pm beside those hours seconds and minutes? > Thanks! > Lisa > > > ----- Original Message ----- > >From: rhonda clark <[EMAIL PROTECTED] > >To: Braillenote List <[email protected] > >Date: Thu, 28 Oct 2004 08:34:46 -0500 (CDT) > >Subject: re: [Braillenote] time in emails > > >Hi Lisa: Yes, hours, minutes, seconds are put in.

So what do the numbers mean in emails for the times? Like 6:17 am for example or 06/ag%dc then the number 7:00? I guess each time zone in the world has an abbreviation? Maybe someone at PDI has a way of explaining this so it makes sense? > >>Thanks. > >>Lisa > > >>> ----- Original Message ----- > >>>From: rhonda clark <[EMAIL PROTECTED] > >>>To: Braillenote List <[email protected] > >>>Date: Thu, 28 Oct 2004 08:02:07 -0500 (CDT) > >>>Subject: re: [Braillenote] time in emails > > >>>Hi Lisa: PDT Pacific Daylight time, CDT, Central Daylight time: and don't forget to change your blocks this weekend. > > >>>> ----- Original Message ----- > >>>>From: Lisa Ehlers <[EMAIL PROTECTED] > >>>>To: [email protected] > >>>>Date: Thu, 28 Oct 2004 15:06:27 +1000 > >>>>Subject: [Braillenote] time in emails > > >>>>Hi Listers, > >>>>I was wondering how I go about determining what time emails were sent to me and what time zone the sender sends them from? I see on emails it gives a time like 6:17 AM then it says something like 06/ag/dc then something like 07:00 then the letters PDT. What does all of this information mean? This is just some srcific information I got from one of my email messages.
