Is there any way to get around that? I just think it's kind of irritating to be reading through a message, and seeing only the time at which you opened it, as opposed to the current time. -renata

Curiously, the 'time received' field (for showing when the message was received by the machine) isn't localed while the other two are. Hence the three I have on my pager format (sent, received, current) are a bit odd in that a message can appear to have arrived a number of hours before it was sent. Why don't I fix the time on the machine? It's a US based machine and I'm not in the US and it's not my machine to do such with =) Hence I have my locale settings set to my city. Works fine with 'date sent' and current time, but not with 'date received'.
