No need to localize timezone, just adding the date and time which is shown on this website's forums is sufficient. Today I had more than 10 email message posts retransmitted between email server and my mobile phone (I use it for reading latest FIX messages). The timestamp on the phone email reader showed current time. My memory told me these messages are old and they were more than a month old. For each post, I could confirm its old only after opening the post in web browser. If the email body had the posted date and time in it, I would have deleted it without reading the complete post and would not have had to open the same post in web browser to check its posted date and time. Its like the SendingTime 52 in a FIX Message which helps the recipient apply a staleness check. Currently when a reply is posted to an old thread of discussion, the thread does not "bubble up" to the top of the discussion forum, it stays in its original position, so email is a way for me to view most recent activity in FIXProtocol discussion forums. > Mahesh, given that the emails at are generated at time of posting, can't > you get this info from your email header?
