Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: thunderbird
Ubuntu 9.10
Thunderbird 2.0.0.23+build1+nobinonly-0ubuntu1
A piece of mail has a different time when viewed on a Linux mail client
(Thunderbird and Evolution) than it does on Windows Outlook or on the
AOL portal. The mail was generated by a control system (not a typical
mail client) and sent via AOL.
The mail was sent on Nov 16 at approximately 7:37 PM. I know this to be
correct.
Looking at the mail on Nov 17 through various clients:
On Thunderbird the date is displayed as 11/16/2009 12:37 PM
On Evolution: Yesterday 12:37
On Outlook (Windows): Mon 11/16/2009 7:38 PM
On AOL (via browser): Mon, Nov 16, 2009 7:37 pm
Looking at the message source below, that the time on the 'Received'
line is '21:37:37 -0500'. This would be 9:37 PM ET / 7:37 PM MT which
is correct as I'm in MT. The 'Date' line contains '19:37:44 UT'.
The message source is (with personal details removed)
Return-Path: <x...@aol.com>
Received: from xxxx (xxxx.xxxxx.com xxxx) by cia-dc06.mx.aol.com (v126.13) with
