Hmmm - I don’t think so…

Sure one can choose to have 01-24 but that is not the issue I describe. I agree that top-of-midnight can be properly expressed as 24:00 but times after midnight ought never be described as 24:xx…

As far as I can tell, the settings you outline do not tell macOS, for example, to display 15m past midnight as 24:15…

Hello & Happy New Year fellow Mailmate users — Quick question re: how Mailmate displays time between the top-of-midnight and 1am…

My research informs me that both 00:00 and 24:00 are, in some situations, used interchangeably for the top-of-the-hour at midnight. However, that same research shows that the time between midnight and 1am are denoted using 00:xx format; consider “Zero Dark Thirty” = 30 minutes past midnight or 00:30. In fact, I was unable to find any standardized uses of the 24:xx format for describing times between the top-of-midnight & 1am; all of the refs I found used 00:xx.

I have discovered that Mailmate displays times between top-of-midnight & 1am using the 24:xx format so, with the above in mind, I wanted to ask if this is intentional or a bug?

It's a system-wide configuration setting. Check under System Settings -> Language & Region -> Advanced -> Times. I don't know if there's any region that has [0]1-24 as default but it's certainly an option for people who like it that way.
