Same here, after 100 years dealing with the wrong time, it now works. Asking MSN to help is like talking to the wall.

So why can't Outlook or any other email app actually show the timezone name as well?

Outlook 2007 allows you to give a nickname for your local timezone, and for an additional timezone, s why not use this?

Thank you so much for the Hotmail Options suggestion. I had been putting up with the incorrect time since 2002 !!!! It was the time zone that was incorrect.

This fixed the problem for me. I have Qwest Live Mail which is actually supplied by Microsoft. When I signed up for it they never mentioned setting this parameter and if you don't it apparently defaults to Universal (Zulu to us pilots) time, formerly known as Greenwich time. Just reset the parameters mentioned in the article to your time zone and it should fix the problem. Thanks again!

Please mention that for Outlook users and possibly other mail programs, the Daylight Savings Option must be checked off. If not checked then time will be shifted 1 hour even though time shows correctly on desktop.

Thanks, I couldn't figure out what was wrong because my PC time was correct.
I had Hotmail time set on 'Universal GMT' instead of 'London GMT', so i ended up getting emails that said 1:00 in the morning and I didn't know why!

I still have this problem.
I checked my time, I checked the Time Zone, I auto sync with time-a.nist.gov, and I still have the problem. I also have the same problem on the other computer in the house.

The e-mail I get from work is 1 hour ahead. When I log into web mail for work it shows an hour ahead. By=ut when someone in the office logs into my web-mail they see the time received correctly. Any other suggestions?

My Outlook Express e-mails show that they are being received 2 hours and 35 minutes later than they actually are, but they show that they are being sent at the actual time.

My computer time is correct.
My computer time zone is correct.

Any suggestions?!?!

Thank you for pointing me in the right direction - I just want to add one point.

Problem
I am at GMT-7 and my hotmail emails were at GMT-2.
My computer time is correct.
My computer time zone is correct.
My time zone on hotmail is correct.

So, everything looks OK - what to do??

Who knows what internal glitch in conversion caused this problem, LOL!! So I fixed it as follows:

Change my hotmail time zone to something incorrect and saved it.
Then changed it to correct value and saved it.
I also added a work time zone with the same value - don't know if this was required but thought it wouldn't hurt.

Hope that this helps someone else.

Cheers
Jean

My e-mails on my home PC seem to be being received time-stamped an hour earlier that they really are (i.i. they say received at 3:20 and sent at 4:20). And somehow my Outlook changed the times on every event in my calendar (making them an hour earlier than they really are). The clock in the lower right shows the correct time.

I have tried installing the following to no avail:
Outlook Fix
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/931667/en-us

Windows Fix
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/933360

Do you know how to fix this? Thanks!

Thank you! Problem solved! Comment for Mac users: I couldn't get the Registered Information option to appear up on the Classic Version of Windows Live (which is all Safari can handle right now), so I had to switch to Firefox and use the Full Version to make the change.

Using Thunderbird, the Time Zone and Computer's Time is CORRECT. All emails sent show up 1-hour ahead when recieved by other people, and emails recieved on this computer from other people are 1-hour behind.
Example:
I send e-mail at 1:00pm to someguy@site.com.
He gets it, and it says "2:00pm".
When he sends an email to me, say at 1:30, it shows up at 12:30pm in Thunderbird.
All other email from someguy to other people are right, and all other emails he gets are right...

Thank you for explaining the time zone - check box to automatically adjust to time zonne changes. Last night I did on line diagnostics with two technicians and neither knew and just had me run around in circles.

I had the error message too when synchroizing mine, HOWEVER.... LOOK at the screen on this page where it tells you where to synch to.. THE ADDRESS AUTOMATICALLY IN WINDOWS is WRONG. the correct address is the above one ie: time-a.nist.gov is correct where mine didnt have the -a. in it. CHECK THAT, mine synchrozied after that.

I am having the time-stamp problem and my time is set correctly in my computer. I have GMail. We just went to DayLight Savings time and I am wondering if that is the issue since we did that 3 weeks earlier than in the past and the system doesn't seem to get it.

I think i must have a bug, when i try to update it says an error occurred and date does not match. When i went into date time the region was set to Canada
but i live in Sydney Australia. I've corrected that but it still refuses to synchronise? I am a full day out!! regards Irene

Several years ago, I was using my Web host for eMail. Since I'm in Oregon and he was in Texas, my eMail time was forever off by two hours. He said there was no fix. But what did he know? he used a Mac, right?
Going to Yay-hoo and then to GMail solved the problem for me, post haste.
