This article is outdated. The new Windows Live style is a maze of option pages that do NOT seem to have a time zone setting buried anywhere in them.

The article is outdated, but you're wrong about there not being a time zone setting for Windows Live Hotmail. New article shows you exactly where: How do I correct my Windows Live Hotmail time zone?

I have been trying to correct my time for about a year. Not until I found your site was I actually able to correct. It's nice to see the actual time on my e-mails. To Daryl follow the directions of JK on 12/31. Follow the exact steps and you'll be allset. Thanks Leo

I have a Yahoo account and I changed it to the correct time zone to match my computer and still the time is incorrect. The box is checked to synchronize with the server time.windows.com and I updated as well. Still, the time is 5 hours ahead on my Yahoo account. Am I doing something wrong? Please help!!

How can I change my time on my email of my yahoo?

It is 5 hour off. If it was I hour ahead it would be okay but not 5 hours.

Could you help me?

Regards,

Debbie

Most annoying when you do not see the correct time the emails were sent... do they actually take that long to reach your INBOX?

I am on Firefox 2.0.0.20 on a Mac OSX 10.3.9. I have a Yahoo address I use for business and the time stamp is off 5 hours. The Date and Time info and the time zone is set correctly on the Mac. The time zone setting in the Yahoo account had been the correct time zone. Even if I change the time zone to a wrong zone there is no change. What to do?

I am with Rogers Yahoo. I am also having the same problem with a email time 5 hours later than when I send it . I read the initial article and checked things out. Computer clock is set correctly, with auto update and time zone. I have reset my Rogers account for time zone also. Still have the same 5 hour time difference. However, on another account running on the same computer under the same overall account, the time is correct. Any ideas?
